Intense yellow, very clear and consistent. It is intense and complex on the nose: in the early years there are fruity smells reminiscent of pear, peach and floreal smells such as acacia flowers and hawthorn and mineral notes. The honey note is very typical of this wine. In the mouth, the Derthona is a dry, warm and sof wine with a good match between high levels of alcohol and high content in organic acids. It has no edges but the texture is balanced and very persistent.
Pair with rich fish dishes (anchovies, scallops, octopus, shrimps).
Following a manual harvest of timorasso grapes in our vineyards In Monleale e Colli Tortonesi, a cold maceration in steel tanks of 3 days takes place followed by a static decantation always in steel and subsequent spontaneous fermentation in concrete tanks for 25 days. Refinement in steel for 10 months and then 7 months of refinement in the bottle.
Wine Enthusiast Review (Cellar Selection):
Rich and inviting, this Derthona opens with aromas of roasted stone fruit, apricot preserves, and a drizzle of honey, all framed by delicate white and yellow flowers. At first sip the wine envelops the palate with a rich and unctuous feeling, but it's quickly washed away by a wave of freshness. Peach skin and a lemon-lime flavors sparkle on the finish, leaving the mouth watering and craving another sip. -J.P.
