In love with her native Languedoc and the many riches it abounds in, Alicia launched herself into the world of wine and wine tourism in 2014 after a diploma in cultural heritage mediation followed by a wine sales training. A single Leitmotiv: to highlight the gourmet generosity of her region. Gourmet, she is as much as she is!
