The Marco Bonfante winery was founded in 2000 when sister and brother Micaela and Marco Bonfante decided to start their own production process. The winery is a family-run company; Marco, graduated from the Oenological School of Alba, is the wine maker and deals with the production and management of the company, while the administrative and shipment management is the responsibility of his sister Micaela.

The production philosophy reflects Bonfante's signature taste which is based on Marco's intuitions and preferences, made of simplicity and clarity. “Wines must be elegant.” Structure, fruit, harmony and complexity are sought in red wines. The common point is always the balance between structure, acidity and alcohol.
