Countryside landscape in the valley of Volterra in the province of Pisa, Italy, processing and care of the vineyards of wine. MonteRosola: A Modern Wine Experience In The Heart Of Ancient Tuscany, Volterra Pisa Tuscany Italy. MonteRosola is a contemporary winery in the hills close to the hilltop town of Volterra in Tuscany. Volterra may be less familiar to some, so let’s start there to understand how MonteRosola and its wines fit into this delightful Tuscan landscape. Volterra claims the title, “the oldest town in Tuscany.” Indeed, various peoples had continuously occupied it since the Bronze Age. Consequently, there are plenty of remains and artefacts from throughout its history. Accordingly, highlights include ancient Etruscan and medieval walls, a Roman theatre and, occupying the highest point, an imposing fortress built by the Medici family. The Florentines conquered and ruled it, whose bitter rivals were neighbouring Pisa and Siena. One reason is that Volterra has a valuable natural resource in alabaster, which carves into everything from Etruscan funeral urns to medieval sculpture and modern objets d’art.
