Elio Altare is more than just a wine maker
Elio Altare is known for his amazing wines, but what you may not know is that on the side he also makes salami! If you sneak away during one of the tours at the cellar you can find his salami hanging form the ceiling, waiting to be “harvested”. He doesn’t really sell them, they are mostly for family and friends. He is a farmer, to the core, so these projects are never about the money.

What is next for Elio Altare?
Elio has tons of energy and he puts all this energy into many “side” projects. Everytime I see him he has something new in the wings. Last I heard he was thinking about making bubbles. I wonder what it will be next time!
