Derthona Timorasso 2023
Recchione Jérémy€32.00Derthona comes from the Roman name given to Tortone, a town south of Milan. It's a white wine made from the Timorrasso grape variety. From the Piedmont region, Derthona is the DOC neighbor of Barolo with its emblematic Nebbiolo grape. The terroir is clay-limestone on the Derthona hills. This grape variety almost disappeared in the 1960s, in favor of the Cortese variety that produces the wines of the Gavi appellation. Yet it's a grape variety that now wants to compete with its world-famous nebbiolo neighbor. Timorrasso is even considered the future white Barolo.
