Melania Battiston

Head Sommelier at 28°-50° Wine Workshop and Kitchen London, Greater London, United Kingdom

I began my career as a Sommelier only 11 months ago but with a great devotion, motivation and dedication I have managed to succeed in, and have been rewarded by, different competitions of which I am really proud of.

I started my ‘ Sommelier journey’ at  28-50 Wine and Kitchen Workshop in Mayfair where at the moment I’m Head Sommelier and Assistant Buyer under the guidance of Clement Robert MS.

I was the only Sommelier in UK selected for NZ SOMMIT 2019.

I was the youngest finalist  at -Best UK Sommelier of the Year 2018. And youngest finalist -Young UK Sommelier of the Year 2018-

I’m currently on a waiting list for Court of Master Sommelier Advanced Examination and I have great project ahead following 28-50 closure.
