Federica is the daughter of Carlo Mascheroni and Giovannella Stianti-Mascheroni, owner of the historic Volpaia wine estate in Chianti Classico. After completing her studies and specialist training in the restoration of paintings on canvas and panel, she gradually steered her career towards the world of wine, initially supporting her family with the winery’s communications and promotional activities.

Today she works full-time for Castello di Volpaia, alongside her brother and mother, playing an active role in developing and promoting the estate’s various properties: from Volpaia, in the heart of Chianti Classico, to Castelprile in the Maremma, and the small-scale production on Pantelleria. She is dedicated to the growth of the family business and the promotion of its wines, which reflect different territories and identities.
