Sourced from La Spinetta's Colli Tortonesi vineyards near the Ligurian Apennines, this 100% Timorasso reflects the grape's historic revival through organic viticulture on mineral-rich soils. Hand-harvested, gently pressed, spontaneously fermented in stainless steel with brief lees contact (no oak), settled, filtered, and bottle-aged 4 months before release at 13% alcohol, emphasizing varietal purity, structure, and aging potential. Production emphasizes terroir transparency for this rare native variety.
Tasting Notes
Bright straw-yellow; aromas of citrus, pear, white flowers, chestnut honey, cedar, aromatic herbs, hydrocarbons, papayas, crushed almonds, and chamomile. Complex, elegant palate layers ripe stone fruits, candied lemon peel, small white flowers, fleshy texture, balanced acidity, mineral undertones, and fresh, lingering finish with savory salinity.
