5. Juan Lo Bello
My passion started in Mendoza, Argentina, with the original “Juan” (my grandfather), who introduced me to the world of wine. I founded the Wine Guru on Wheels in Basel in 2016 to organise unique wine experiences for everyone who is curious about wine! (you?). I am also a WSET Certified Wine Educator teaching formal wine courses. My wine experiences are my lab outside the classroom, my white canvas, where you and I, together, create memorable wine moments!
