Fontanafredda Derthona Colli Tortonesi Timorasso 2023

In the early 1990s, the Timorasso grape was on the verge of extinction, but it ‘ … is now gearing up to be the next star name of Italy’s northwest …’ (Tiziano Gaia, decanter.com). Known as ‘white Barolo’ due to its structure and aptitude for long ageing, it offers notes of tropical fruit when young and driedfruit, almond and honeyed notes as it matures.
