About

You are here: Home1 / About

Giannoni Selections is a wine importing company based in Massachusetts and Italy. We directly source, import, and distribute the highest quality organic/biodynamic wines to restaurants and retailers in Massachusetts. Our pursuit of top, non-interventionist wine began over a decade ago through extensive tasting, travel, and internship. The portfolio aims to be an extension of our experiences and relationships, upon which we continuously work to build and refine. Given the level and sometimes obscurity of our products, our goal isn’t just to sell wine. We look to partner with our clients more deeply by offering regular staff/customer education through trainings and in-store tastings as well as sales promotion through email blasts and social media.

Gemma Iannoni grew up in a small, Connecticut town and obtained a BA in Economics from Barnard College of Columbia University. She received her wine education through an ongoing dialogue with food and wine that began while living in Bologna just after college and continued throughout her professional career. For nearly a decade, she worked at Formaggio Kitchen Cambridge as Wine Buyer/Cheesemonger, a role in which she encountered many rare food and wine traditions. At the beginning of 2014, Gemma moved to Northern Italy, from where she was able to gain firsthand experience from growers. This opportunity not only refined her understanding of viticulture and winemaking, but greatly improved her ability to judge wines by tasting at each stage of production.
