"Lustrous mid ruby with bricky rim. Gorgeous nose of minerals, cherry and wild strawberry and with an undertow of dark earth. Still compact and tight and a little embryonic on the palate with the youthful fruit framed in tightly knit, chewy tannins. Very long and precise but still too young. A proper grand cru." 17.5 points, Jancis Robinson (WS).

While the vineyards that form Punset have been farmed by the Marcarino family for generations, it is truly thanks to Marina and her incredible energy that the estate is how it is nowadays. In the 1980s, she decided to pursue organic farming – a demanding choice that was rewarded by becoming the first estate to receive the organic certification in Italy. Her passion for the soil and the environment led her to embrace biodynamics and the agronomic philosophy of Manasobu Fukuoka. From one of the healthiest vineyards in Italy, Marina crafts wines that brim with life, energy, and pure terroir.
