I have always been fascinated with Simone Bergese.  But after hearing all about his life’s adventure and the experiences that ultimately brought him to Georgia, I am even more impressed.  Simone like his mentor in Sicily, is truly becoming a force of Nature.  This idea has stuck with me since our interview, What does it mean to “Be a Force of Nature”?  How do you become a force of nature?  What are those characteristics and can  I develop them? 

Simone seems to have found a way.  Whether tussling with the Sicilian mafia or learning massive scale  wine production in Australia, Simone journey is absolutely fascinating.  He has spanned the globe  from Tahiti to Virginia, Soaking up a wealth of knowledge and experience all along the way.  He may not have a had specific plan, but the overarching dream led Simone to not only be an Extra ordinary wine maker but to become…….  A Force of Nature.
