Not yet reviewed; 2017 vintage rated 94 points by Wine Enthusiast: "Aromas of beeswax, yellow wild flower, stone fruit and honey form the delicate nose, along with the barest whiff of petrol. Smooth, enveloping and savory, the palate offers mature apricot, yellow peach, lemon zest and honeyed nut before a saline finish. Fresh acidity lifts the finish. It's already delicious but hold for even more complexity. Drink through 2025. Alcohol 13%."
Importer notes: "Varietal: Timorasso. Sourced from a one hectare vineyard in the town of Montemarzino in the Colli Tortonesi area. Derthona is the old name for Tortona, the area in Piedmont where Timorasso is traditionally grown. Timorasso is a grape that has proven itself to be a rising star amongst Italy's white varietals. It usually makes mineral-driven, medium-bodied whites with dried fruit notes that are sometimes oily in texture."
