La Colombera Timorasso Colli Tortonesi Dhertona 2021
Arguably the greatest white grape from Piemonte, the region of Italy’s indisputably greatest red grape. Timorasso has an alluring aroma of white flowers, citrus and stone fruits. On the palate it shows minerality and a texture not unlike that of Chenin Blanc or Riesling. Like both of those grapes it ages extremely well. Made by Elisa Semino, affectionately and, in our opinion, justifiably known as the “Queen of Timorasso”
