Mia Fischer is an oenologist and viticulturist who studied in Stellenbosch, South Africa. She has worked for almost a decade in ultra-premium wine production under the guidance of Professor Denis Dubourdieu, who first introduced the SIMONIT&SIRCH principles of respectful winter and spring pruning to their vineyards. The SIMONIT&SIRCH method, established by Marco Simonit and Pierpaolo Sirch, aims to strengthen and preserve vine structure, establish uniformity and reduce susceptibility to trunk diseases by focusing on improving and optimizing the vine’s vascular system. Obtaining firsthand experience in the SIMONIT&SIRCH principles and practices in South Africa and witnessing the benefits in wine quality, Mia subsequently joined the company, gaining additional experience abroad. She now operates as trainer and country manager for both the U.S. and Australia.
