95 points Kerin O'Keefe: "Beeswax, Spanish broom, yellow stone fruit, honey and crushed rock aromas take shape on the charismatic 2022 Derthona Montemarzino. Showing great vibrancy and depth, the savory, medium-bodied palate delivers ripe peach, yellow apple, hazelnut and saline mineral notes before closing on a hint of honey. Drink through 2030. (Oct 2024)"
94 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The Roagna family started making this wine in 2014 and were among the first to focus on Timorasso. A family cousin lives in the Colli Tortonesi and sold them a tiny piece of land. The idea was: why not try a white wine? The 2022 Derthona Montemarzino opens to soft intensity with honey, melon and acacia flower. Compared to the Solea (Chardonnay and Nebbiolo), which is sharper and fresher, this wine offers depth and textural richness. It shows a saturated golden color, and the oak integration is seamless. It has the basic qualities for decent cellar aging. Drink 2026-2040 (Jan 2025)"
92 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "Luca Roagna's 2022 Timorasso Derthona Montemarzino is a gorgeous, exotic white. Hints of lemon confit, marzipan, white flowers and herbs build beautifully over time. Attractive floral overtones and silky contours give this creamy, layered Timorasso notable finesse. Drink 2024-2028 (Oct 2024)"
