Varietal Timorasso

Timorasso is a white grape from the Colli Tortonesi, the hills around Tortona in southeastern Piedmont, and it came close to disappearing. By the 1980s only a few growers still tended it, until Walter Massa began replanting it and proving what it could do. Today it’s one of Italy’s most compelling whites. Timorasso is full-bodied and textured, with ripe stone fruit, citrus peel, and a touch of honey, held in check by bright acidity and a distinctly mineral edge. With age it picks up dried apricot, toasted almond, and beeswax, gaining depth while holding on to its acidity and mineral core. It pairs well with rich seafood, cured meats, and aged cheeses, and the best bottles reward several years in the cellar.

Country Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.

Region Piedmont

Situated in the north-western part of Italy, the region of Piedmont is known worldwide and is highly respected for the quality of the wines produced there. Many of the most successful sub-regions in Piedmont produce many of the world's finest red wines, such as those made from the excellent Nebbiolo grape varietal in areas such as Barolo and Barbaresco. However, the historic wineries which typify this region use a relatively wide variety of grapes, including Dolcetto and Barbera for their red wines, which are typically aged and have a delightful velvety character. Piedmont isn't all about beautifully complex red wines, though, as it is also famed for high quality, elegant sparkling wines, notably the Asti wines made with the white Moscato grape. The region benefits from a range of terroirs which are often well expressed in the sparkling wines, and a wonderfully consistent climate ideal for vineyard cultivation.

Decanter

A notoriously capricious variety, low-yielding and slow to ripen, Timorasso was close to extinction until the late 1980s, when the visionary Walter Massa rode to its rescue, recognising its potential to produce complex, gastronomic wines. Derthona, the ancient name for the town of Tortona, is the moniker given to these increasingly highly regarded whites from the Colli Tortonesi in southeast Piedmont. Here, the limestone-marl soils give textural character and the southeasterly aspect aids ripening. Luigi Boveri is acknowledged as a master of the variety. David Kermode: Fresh, zesty nose. Yellow apple acidity, plump fruit and gentle textural charm. A pithy lemon finish. Sara Bachiorri: Wild herbs and flowers on the nose. Lemony, salty palate with a hint of petrol. Creamy texture. Good balance. Jason Millar: Taut and bright, with a hint of Riesling lime juice. Verbena and citrus pith, with an energetic line of acidity through the middle. Composed and cool.

Winery Notes

Kerin O'Keefe highlights "... hazelnut, stone fruit and citrus aromas, with yellow peach, graphite, lime and wild fennel on the palate, finishing intensely salty. Drink through 2034." 93 points
