Punset

It is a historical memory that the Counts of Castelborgo used The Piedmontese dialect term Punset, literally meaning "beautiful hill" or "point," to describe the only one of their estates that towered from the autumn mists and could thus be admired from their castle.

It is the heritage of the Marcarino family, on the other hand, the long memory in winemaking from the succession in the ownership of the hillside vineyards; albeit for exclusively family production.

Instead, 1964 came when Renzo Marcarino, officially began the activity bringing the first bottles of the Punset winery to the market, but it was in the early 1980s that a decisive choice, desired and carried out by his daughter Marina, marked the company's turning point: converting the entire cultivation to organic, eliminating all kinds of pesticides and all synthetic products. A challenging, conscious and immediately disciplined choice through certification.

Over the years Marina Marcarino, who is now entirely in charge of the farm's management, has perfected agronomic methods that tend to minimize the use of copper and sulfur treatments, preferring biodynamic preparations and sharing the agronomic philosophy of Manasobu Fukuoka, also known as "the agriculture of not doing."
