FRIENDS OF THE HOUSE
Who I clink with
These are brands I share a story with: some I put in a good word for wherever I go, some have supported me along the way and still do, and others I simply pick every time.
Each piece is a friend of the house. Tap one to see what you’ll find there. The map fills up one piece at a time.
Where I get my suits
Pazzo · Brașov
brand advocate
Good wine needs the right glass. The person pouring it needs the right suit. Mine comes from Pazzo: a cut that still fits perfectly after the fifth glass.

Where I read about wine
Vinul.ro
jury member
When I want to know what’s new in Romanian wine, that’s the first place I open. I’ve been reading them for years, and since 2026 I’ve had the pleasure of sitting on their jury.
The wine I drink and recommend
Davino · Ceptura, Dealu Mare
Davino team
Wines I’d put on any table. Yes, I work at Davino. And they’d be in any top list of mine even if I didn’t.
You won’t find restaurants and bars here, and not for lack of love.
I work in hospitality and have friends in almost every kitchen and behind every bar. If I add one, tomorrow the list will be longer than a wine list. So I praise them differently: at the table, glass raised. 🥂
