Meet Sheila Donohue
Vero founder Sheila Donohue started Vero after living in Italy for over 20 years. Astounded by the sheer quantity of authentic wines (and foods) she found living in Italy, she became determined to create a community built on a shared love for authentic wine and food, all while bringing together small producers, businesses, and wine enthusiasts. A sommelier, Sheila, with her company Vero, shares the exceptional but lesser-known products she found in Italy, and other hidden corners around the world, from small, dedicated producers with those seeking a more genuine and enriching culinary and wine tasting experience.
