Raffaello De Crescenzo – Food & Wine consultant
10/02/2021 in Blog
Macrigi's friends, let me introduce myself
Hi everyone, I am Raffaello De Crescenzo and I am here to accompany you in the world of taste and flavor.
My life through the passion of tasting and communication
I have always nurtured a strong passion for writing and communication, as well as an innate curiosity: for these reasons, after having obtained the Classical Maturity, I approached the fascinating world of Food & Beverage, enrolling in the degree Agri-food Sciences and Technologies, at the Faculty of Agriculture of the Polytechnic University of Marche.
The study also took me for an entire academic year in Spain, at the Facultad de Ciencias y Tecnologia de los Alimentos in Murcia, where I approached the world of sensory analysis and that of enology.
Step by step
In 2008 I became an expert taster of olive oils and I obtained a Master’s Degree in Food and Nutrition Sciences, while in January 2009, I started a new Bachelor’s Degree course: Viticulture and Enology.
Before reaching this milestone, I completed the Wine Taster course, with the O.N.A.V. (National Organization of Wine Tasters) and also gained a good experience in organizing tasting events and themed dinners.
Having also achieved the goal of the second three-year degree, in 2013 I obtained an Executive Master in Agrifood Management, finished the sommelier courses and decided to open my blog, CulturAgroalimentare, to share my passion for wine and quality food.
l 2014 I obtained the Sommelier Diploma with the Italian Sommelier Association.
After many years of study, finally the practice
In 2015 I had the pleasure of carrying out a service at the St. Hubertus Restaurant at the Hotel Rosa Alpina of the three-starred chef Norbert Niederkofler and in 2016 I published my first book: “The sensory profile of wine: analysis and application of the method” , published by Italian Academic Editions.
In 2017 I served at the Oslo Vin festival, the most important Norwegian wine event, but 2020 is the year of the turning point: I start the path to become a journalist, publishing over 180 articles in 12 months, I complete the Master in sommelier service and the first two levels of mineral water taster. In addition to all this, I start to produce training and tasting videos and, after many years, I return to television, as co-host of a cultural program, entitled “Culturà”.
In 2021 I also start conducting another television program: “Wine & Luxury”, the daughter of a new magazine, in which I collaborate as an author.
The collaboration with Macrigi Marketplace
In the same period I met Macrigi and we started a collaboration aimed at creating video tastings in English, with my personal reviews on the best Italian wines!

The three best vegan sparkling wines of the prosecco hills
04/02/2021 in Blog
A trend that comes to our shop
A sparkling news has arrived in our shop for lovers of nature and animals. We reveal three types of sparkling wine that are treated without the use of substances of animal origin, therefore suitable for consumption for vegans.
Sustainable agriculture
We make the most of natural resources, using conventional means only in case of need. In doing so, we reduce the environmental impact of our operations.
The company and how it works
The company was founded in 2015 in Conegliano, a historic city of wine, which in recent years has become, together with Valdobbiadene, a sparkling wine center as well as a symbol of Prosecco. In fact it is here that this wine was born, today it has become the most sold in the world. It is therefore halfway between the Dolomites and Venice, thus enjoying a windy climate that helps the cultivation of the vine.
The idea of the company stems from the desire to make sustainable agriculture, respecting the environment, using the integrated production system, weeding mechanically and not chemically, and minimizing water consumption thanks to precision systems.
The lands that make up the company surface, all adjacent to rivers, have silty characteristics, thus giving the earth a rich mixture that gives important nutrients to the vines.
Where vegan prosecco are born
Prosecco originates from the north-east of Italy, and ranges between Veneto and Friuli.
However, it was born in a much smaller area, between the hills of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene. In fact, here is the historic and hilly area, called DOCG. Around this area there is instead the flat area of the DOC.
The three prosecco that come from the wonderful Venetian hills
Prosecco Doc Treviso Extra Dry
Prosecco Doc Treviso Extra Dry is a sparkling wine with a sweet character, aimed at those looking for products that respect the environment. Ideal for a spritz with friends.
Prosecco Doc Treviso Extra Brut
This wine is the driest of the Prosecchi family, suitable for those who prefer a sparkling wine with a decidedly not sweet taste. Ideal to combine with raw fish or shellfish.
Prosecco Doc Treviso Brut
Prosecco Doc Treviso Brut is a dry sparkling wine, suitable for those who prefer a slightly sweet taste. It is a fresh and light wine, ideal for a relaxing aperitif at the end of the day.
