Francesco Tanzi

HEAD OF DEPARTMENT

Francesco Tanzi is the head of the Rarest and Finest Wines Department and the Whisky and Collectible Spirits Department.

He has expanded the activities of this department by organizing international tastings of Champagne including Krug, Dom Perignon, Salon and Perrier-Jouët; in addition to top Italian wines like Ornellaia, Solaia, Sassicaia and Masseto. At the same time, the department has participated in events of the caliber of Expo in Milan and has made headway by creating a customer base that is by now international.

An expert in the wine market and a certified A.I.S. sommelier, his passion for wine has led him to create two strong and extremely dynamic departments.

In his role as an auctioneer, he has put more than 20,000 bottles and spirits up for bid, including the record-breaking bottle in Italy of Bowmore 1966 Samoroli Bouquet Whisky, which sold for € 49,000. Thanks to his interest in and determination to find rare labels, he has built upon and reinforced the importance of the department across the Italian territory, while striking up important collaborations with institutions and structures for the organization of charity auctions and wine tastings.
