About
Iulian Grigorescu - the man, WineFisto - the character.
Born in Braila in the month of harvest, I was introduced to wine in my family, a family with a 4-generation tradition in grape growing and wine production. Later, through a happy coincidence, I discovered exceptional wines from the beginnings of modern winemaking in Romania. I fell in love with wine so much that I started cultivating and educating my own tastes by attending a series of specialized schools and courses and eventually transforming my passion into a profession.
I have traveled an interesting path combining passion with business, building an exclusive wine distribution for the hospitality industry, then building and running a restaurant with high standards where all the knowledge acquired during the courses I attended was put into practice, and now, accepting a new challenge: managing a liquor store. In parallel, I followed a series of courses and became an authorized taster, ADAR member, FIJEV member, WSET graduate, master's student at USAMV Bucharest in "Performing Technologies, Marketing and Wine Management", olive oil taster, sommelier and trainer; organizer of one of the largest wine competitions in Romania for 7 editions, organizer of the only wine fair in Braila, communicator, wine educator and juror in national and international wine competitions.
After 10 years of studying, promoting and tasting wine with passion, I sign, along with 8 other wine bloggers and communicators, the bilingual guide "Winelovers' Guide into Romanian Romanian Treasures". A curious gourmet, I combine my passion for wine with that for food and organize oeno-gastronomic events.
All this journey, all this work and accumulated experience, brought me here - the moment when personal "branding" naturally makes its appearance.
Why “WineFisto”? I’ll let you philosophize. The “fight” cry and the personal signature: “Let’s kick some corks!!!”
