RETROGUSTI is an international project created to unveil the hidden «retrogusti» in food and wine, exploring its roots, values, and lesser-known traditions through original and engaging storytelling.
Through the details and connections that enrich the bond with food and wine, RETROGUSTI brings to light the wonderful complexity of gastronomic culture, leveraging an online magazine and a network for organizing thematic events.
February 16, 2024. Retrogusti is born under the sign of Aquarius, the sign of creativity, originality, and a constant drive towards what is new. With a nonconformist and independent spirit, Retrogusti also identifies with the most prominent characteristics of those born in February, giving rise to an unprecedented narrative of the world of food and wine.
The idea takes shape in the heart of Italy, Florence, during a mild evening with a crisp late winter air in the Sant’Ambrogio area, a corner of the city full of history and daily life. Six musketeers around a table with a glass of Bolgheri Superiore in hand are laying the foundations of a project that aims to reveal the hidden "aftertastes", exploring its roots, values, and lesser-known traditions.
Retrogusti is bonds.
Bonds with the territory, with what originates from it, and with those who produce it.
Bonds between those who tell the stories and those who become passionate about them.
But above all, it is the thread that embroiders an invisible canvas as it winds its way through places, products, and people united by the same desire for discovery.
Through the details and connections that enrich the partnership between food and wine, Retrogusti brings to light the wonderful complexity of this culture.
Retrogusti, laboratory of food and wine relationships.
Nunzio Scavo
Carbonara or Gricia, a Chianina and a bottle of Valpolicella… this is the meal of the places in my heart, but certainly not of my nutritionist! At Retrogusti, I am the Executive Director and founder and with the cry of “details are the key to success”, I manage the direction and coordinate this extraordinary team in a game of dynamic balances, aiming for the success of our fascinating project.
Filippo Lazzerini
Florentine "sharp", I have always ridden the "contradiction" in my multiple passions made of music, cinema, travel, and, of course, wine. As co-founder, Events Director and writer, I experience Retrogusti as one of the most important challenges of my life: telling stories with words and inspiring with energy.
Angelo Loreto
Born in Campania, I live in Puglia. As a child, essays at school earned me the highest grades; as an adult, journalism became my path. Writing finds its counterpoint in the world of wine, understood as a distillation of history, culture, territory, and human passion. I am the Editorial Director of Retrogusti and to those who ask me whether I prefer red or white, sea or mountain, meat or fish, I reply that every glass, place, and dish is a story that deserves to be told for its beauty, harmony, and uniqueness.
Francesca Concas
Born in Sardinia, I choose Florence to study. I always have a bag and a ticket ready to travel: through places, words, art, craftsmanship, music, and taste. The Carignano del Sulcis and the Pabassinos have never stopped flowing through my veins. I am a Content Editor for Retrogusti and it's an exciting journey!
Ilaria Burgassi
Turin native, Florentine at heart, and Milanese in habit, I like to win easily and I can't help but love the King of Italian reds, even in its chinato version. For Retrogusti I am the Head of Communication and, like all communicators, I am the one behind the scenes, a sort of hidden stylist who curates and conveys the image of Retrogusti to the outside world.
Filippo Piantini
Purebred Florentine but always with the heart turned towards the Far East. You can find me eating with the same voracity both a Florentine steak with a Chianti, and a plate of soba accompanied by a Junmai Daiginjo sake. For Retrogusti, I am responsible for Digital Development (so yes, I'm “the website guy”).
Franco Peluso
With the sun of Apulia in my heart, I am always in search of new food and wine experiences to live and new places where I can discover the traditions and the people who cultivate them. The organization of events allows me to connect with those who share my passions. In Retrogusti, I have the role of Partnership Manager to develop and manage collaborations useful to the project.
Diletta Regoli
Senese origins and Salentine roots, my life is a blend between Chianti and Negroamaro. I live in Milan but I love spending time in the places I am fortunate to call home. Cooking, in all its forms, for me is a form of unconditional love, a language that is built as it is spoken. For Retrogusti I am the Relationship Manager.
Irene Chiarugi
Pratese born under the sign of Aquarius like Retrogusti, I am attracted to what excites and astonishes, such as exciting and overwhelming stories. The flavors are the plot, the numbers the weave that punctuates my days. I am the Secretary and Treasurer of this talented association, responsible for administrative management.

Filippo Piantini
Purebred Florentine but always with the heart turned towards the Far East. You can find me eating with the same voracity both a Florentine steak with a Chianti, and a plate of soba accompanied by a Junmai Daiginjo sake. For Retrogusti, I am responsible for Digital Development (so yes, I'm “the website guy”).
Franco Peluso
With the sun of Apulia in my heart, I am always in search of new food and wine experiences to live and new places where I can discover the traditions and the people who cultivate them. The organization of events allows me to connect with those who share my passions. In Retrogusti, I have the role of Partnership Manager to develop and manage collaborations useful to the project.
Diletta Regoli
Senese origins and Salentine roots, my life is a blend between Chianti and Negroamaro. I live in Milan but I love spending time in the places I am fortunate to call home. Cooking, in all its forms, for me is a form of unconditional love, a language that is built as it is spoken. For Retrogusti I am the Relationship Manager.
Irene Chiarugi
Pratese born under the sign of Aquarius like Retrogusti, I am attracted to what excites and astonishes, such as exciting and overwhelming stories. The flavors are the plot, the numbers the weave that punctuates my days. I am the Secretary and Treasurer of this talented association, responsible for administrative management.
Nunzio Scavo
Carbonara or Gricia, a Chianina and a bottle of Valpolicella… this is the meal of the places in my heart, but certainly not of my nutritionist! At Retrogusti, I am the Executive Director and founder and with the cry of “details are the key to success”, I manage the direction and coordinate this extraordinary team in a game of dynamic balances, aiming for the success of our fascinating project.
Filippo Lazzerini
Florentine "sharp", I have always ridden the "contradiction" in my multiple passions made of music, cinema, travel, and, of course, wine. As co-founder, Events Director and writer, I experience Retrogusti as one of the most important challenges of my life: telling stories with words and inspiring with energy.
Angelo Loreto
Born in Campania, I live in Puglia. As a child, essays at school earned me the highest grades; as an adult, journalism became my path. Writing finds its counterpoint in the world of wine, understood as a distillation of history, culture, territory, and human passion. I am the Editorial Director of Retrogusti and to those who ask me whether I prefer red or white, sea or mountain, meat or fish, I reply that every glass, place, and dish is a story that deserves to be told for its beauty, harmony, and uniqueness.
Francesca Concas
Born in Sardinia, I choose Florence to study. I always have a bag and a ticket ready to travel: through places, words, art, craftsmanship, music, and taste. The Carignano del Sulcis and the Pabassinos have never stopped flowing through my veins. I am a Content Editor for Retrogusti and it's an exciting journey!
Ilaria Burgassi
Turin native, Florentine at heart, and Milanese in habit, I like to win easily and I can't help but love the King of Italian reds, even in its chinato version. For Retrogusti I am the Head of Communication and, like all communicators, I am the one behind the scenes, a sort of hidden stylist who curates and conveys the image of Retrogusti to the outside world.
