Origin

Produced in the Derthona area of Piedmont, Italy, this wine showcases the unique terroir of the Tortona hills, known for their calcareous and clay soils that contribute to the wine's distinctive character.

Variety

Made exclusively from the Timorasso grape, an indigenous white variety native to the Piedmont region, prized for its aromatic complexity and aging potential.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo gentle pressing. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to preserve freshness and aromatic intensity. The wine is then aged on its lees for several months to enhance texture and complexity before bottling.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Bright straw yellow with greenish reflections.
  • Aroma: Intense and complex bouquet featuring floral notes, citrus, white peach, and hints of minerality.
  • Palate: Fresh and vibrant with balanced acidity, a medium to full body, and a persistent, slightly textured finish.

Food pairings

  • Seafood dishes such as grilled fish, shellfish, and seafood risotto.
  • Light poultry preparations and white meats.
  • Fresh cheeses and mild, creamy cheeses.
  • Vegetable-based dishes and spring salads.
