Alessandro Guarino is an Italian wine specialist born and raised in Pescara, Abruzzo, on Italy’s Adriatic coast, where wine and food are a daily expression of culture, family, and place. Growing up surrounded by vineyards, traditional cooking, and local producers, he developed a deep appreciation for wines made to complement food and tell the story of their origin.
Through Impero Wine Distributors, Alessandro represents a carefully curated portfolio of boutique Italian wineries, highlighting native grape varieties, terroir-driven expressions, and producers committed to quality, authenticity, and tradition. Now based in the Lowcountry, he is known for leading engaging tastings, wine dinners, and educational experiences that bring Italian wine culture to life—one bottle, one dish, and one story at a time
