In the year 1583, the registers of the possessions of Count Daniele Malabaila include a description of the Masseria della Volta:
“The Masseria della Volta, arable land with vines and fallow land with a farmhouse within, bordering the territories of San Damiano and Priocca, this plot of land with vines extending from the Gardesana to the meadow of the Giardino.”
From these lands comes a Nebbiolo that expresses in a typical way the character of the Roero. The slope of the vineyards, the loose sandy soils, and the age of the vines contribute to the creation of a wine with good structure, delicate tannins, and a fresh and full aromatic profile. Aging in large oak casks completes its balance, accompanying the natural softening of the tannins and enhancing its elegance.
The image of the white horse universally represents purity, nobility, and spiritual strength.
This wine expresses the most traditional interpretation of Nebbiolo del Roero, in which structure and finesse coexist, just like in the chosen symbol. The horse, moreover, is an animal known for its longevity, a quality that also reflects this wine’s ability to evolve and age over time.
