The
Punset "azienda agricola" is located in the village of Neive in
the Piemonte district of Italy. The Winery's name Punset comes from the Piemontese
dialect and history. The vineyards have been owned by the Marcarino family
for many years, producing wine for family use. It was year 1964 when Renzo
Marcarino decided to sell Punset wines.
Today the winery is run by Marina Marcarino, who is one of a few female wine
makers in Piemonte and she is making the winery one of the top producers of
the area. Over the 35 years that the winery has been marketing their products,
they have developed methods and philosophy of making excelent wines at reasonable
prices.The Vineyards are controlled by an agricoltural director, always following
biologic methods without using chemical pesticides, insecticides and fertilyzers.
Punset is the only winery in the area that was totally converted to the growth
of vines with biologic certified methods and up to now it is the only winery
able to produce certified organically grown Barbaresco.
All
wines are certified by Ecocert Italia in conformity with the European low
for organic products. Selected grapes from our vineyards become wines combining
technology with tradition. Wines with typical characteristics of high quality
and personality are reaching many markets with an encreasing positive reputation
year by year.
Only the very best grapes picked in our vineyards are made into our wines.
The Punset brand is becoming well know also thanks to specialized journalists
of books and magazines. Many awards and recognition have been given to those
wines lately and at least one of our Punset wines is awarded by important
writers and competition annually. In 1994 the Barbaresco Punset was in "The
Top 100 Wines of the Year" selected by "The wine Spectator",
in the last three editions of the lWC Competition the Barbaresco Compo Quadro
won the bronze medal.
