Sometimes the best things come from unexpected situations. This is the case of Umberto Notarnicola and Bruno Violo, two men who, although linked to the regions of the great reds, were able to create the most important private wine producing reality of the Province of Rome, starting from Frascati, the historic white of the Castelli Romani. The passion for wine and for the enchanting territory of the Castles led them to go beyond their origins, Umberto from Puglia and Bruno from Piemonte, with the creation in 1972 of a winery on the San Marco hill, from which the company took the name.
