SCEA VILLA NORIA

On the first plots of land on the estate, there is a magnificent noria, almost intact, from which the name “Villa Noria” is derived.
A noria, a beautiful word of Arabic origin, is a hydraulic mechanism used to extract the water essential to life. The noria, driven by the current of the watercourses, is also used to bring up water from the wells and irrigate the plantations.

“Villa Noria” is an estate created from scratch by four young people with strong will and ambitions. Their ancestors, all farmers and wine growers but in different regions of France, left them for only heritage the love and respect of the land. Villa Noria is the fruit of a passion overflowing with ethics and values.
