I’m Aaron, the voice behind Aaroncino. My story starts with Sicilian roots and has taken me down a road that’s anything but straight—Navy days on the flight deck, years in the trenches of the wine world, countless late nights chasing music, and mornings finding meaning in a good espresso.
Today, I wear a lot of hats: wine importer, writer, dreamer, father, partner. The most important part of my life is my family. I’m a dad to two amazing boys, and I share my days with Erin—the love of my life and my partner in everything. A&E forever.
Aaroncino was born out of a need to connect all the pieces of who I am: the wines I import, the food I cook, the roads I travel, the stories I collect. It’s a space where culture and craft matter, where the soul of a vineyard in Italy or a kitchen in Long Beach can sit side by side with a motorcycle ride through the hills or a late-night conversation about life.
This isn’t about polish—it’s about honesty. It’s about savoring life, even when it’s messy. So if you’re here, pull up a chair. Let’s share a glass, a story, maybe even a laugh.
