Daniel Sigmund

Why abnormal? In 1978, it wasn't entirely normal for my youngest son, my grandfather Albino, to take over the farm. Even in 2006, it wasn't a given that my forty-year-old mother, Fiorina, would continue to run the business, because her brother wasn't interested.

That's how I got into the world of wine: my name is Daniel Sigmund. As a child, I wanted to be a carpenter. At the time, I didn't know that being a winemaker was actually much more fun!
