Malabaila Di Canale Langhe Favorita 2022 750 ML

The first news about our family in the Roero area dates back to 1270, when the Malabailas from Asti, where they carry on their banking and commercial activities, decided to expand into Roero.
The first document that speaks of a purchase of land “suitable for becoming a vineyard” dates back to 1362. The protagonist here is the Castelletto, a historic vineyard located on the southern slope of a hill with a small castle at the top.
It is from this vineyard that our Roero Riserva Castelletto is still produced today.
As evidence of the continuity of wine production, seven letters were found in the archive from 1500 until 1624, in which the Prince of Piedmont and the Duke of Savoy required our wines at court.
The last descendant Malabaila was my grandmother, married to Count Carlo Dal Pozzo with whom she had two sons, a girl and a boy who had no heirs. Now therefore the legitimate heirs are my daughters.
The first foundations of the Castle of Canale date back to 1270, when the building was a fortress intended by the town for defense in case of clashes.
Later the village assigned the manor to Antonio and Domenico Roero, two brothers who divided the castle, holding one wing east and the other the west wing.
The hall was instead the subject of several battles between the two brothers until, in 1512, the Malabailas took over, which, partly by marriage and partly by subsequent purchases, came into possession of the entire property.
