Stefano Campanini

Italian Wine Contributor

Founder of Italian Wine School, Stefano Campanini is one of the 300 Italian Wine Ambassadors representing 33 different countries, and one of the few people to hold this title in the United States. Stefano’s discerning palate was cultivated in his birthplace Parma, Emilia Romagna and he has travelled extensively in different wine regions. Stefano’s dream of sharing pleasure at the table began in 2011 when he opened Wine by the Bay. Since then, this wine store has quickly become recognized as one of South Florida’s leading Champagne and boutique wine stores and was most recently awarded Wine-Searcher Gold in Overall and French lists in Miami. “Wine is an education and not just a drink,” he’ll say while handcrafting a ‘tale of wine cities’ to both novices and aficionados alike.
