In 1986, Marco finished enological school in Alba, and three years later, in 1989, his father bought the Munie vineyard in the Bussia hamlet. Thereafter the family embarked on a long road, a path of devotion, work, and passion, with a constant desire to improve experimenting with new methods, while discovering at the same time old traditions, forgotten arts, combining technological progress and traditions in order to reach the objective. Their goal was to produce very elegant, fine, well-balanced wines with a strong identity that reveal all the experiences, lessons, and values learned over the course of time.
