La Spinetta Timorasso Colli Tortonesi 'Derthona' 2020

Winery: "Timorasso is an ancient indigenous grape variety of Piemonte. The wine has an incredible structure and longevity, the delicate citrus and floral notes sing in concert leading to a vibrant long finish. From a 7.5-hectare parcel of 25-year-old vines in Montemarzino-Monleale. Cultivated organically.  East of Asti, just over 1 hour by car from the Langhe. 50% of the fruit does an 18-hour cryo-maceration. Spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel. The wine rests on its lees for 4 months prior to bottling and is released in September of the year after harvest. 13% alcohol. 26,000 bottles were produced for the 2020"

Antonio Galloni:  “The 2020 Timorasso Derthona is a phenolic, savory wine. Orchard fruit, almond, citrus peel, and white pepper all open in the glass. Racy floral and tropical accents add an exotic element that is quite appealing."
