Reviewer:Monica Larner, Wine Advocate (Robert Parker)
Review:Here is a solid interpretation of the Timorasso grape from La Spinetta. The 2023 Colli Tortonesi Timorasso Derthona shows golden color saturation and opens to neutral stone fruit aromas of quince, pear and peach. This was a warm vintage, and the wine ultimately reveals a slightly waxy texture with canned peach that emerges in a second moment. In all, this is a very young expression, and as we know, Timorasso needs more bottle age before it shows its true complexity and depth. I recommend you give it a couple of years in the cellar. Fruit is organic, and 40,000 bottles were created.
