After studying hospitality and working in the industry, in 2004 Gianni Sinesi joined Ristorante Reale in Italy’s Aquila province, where he trained as a sommelier, becoming certified in 2008. He worked his way up to head sommelier, winning awards along the way, including, in 2020, the title of Best Sommelier Under 35 at the first Food & Wine Italia Awards. That year, he launched Impressioni di Gianni Sinesi – wines made in partnership with carefully chosen winemakers. In 2024, he began working with online wine store Tannico, building a selection of Abruzzo wines for them.
