Vintage Character The Colli Tortonesi Timorasso Derthona 2022 from Voerzio Martini showcases the remarkable potential of the Timorasso grape, a rare native variety from Piemonte’s Colli Tortonesi DOC. Benefiting from a warm and balanced growing season in 2022, the wine expresses vibrant, ripe fruit and clarity of character, with the vintage noted for producing whites of impressive freshness and depth.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing On the nose, this Timorasso reveals layers of ripe pear, white peach, and subtle wildflowers, complemented by hints of honey and a distinct mineral edge. The palate is textured and lively, with juicy orchard fruit, citrus zest, and a touch of salinity, all supported by crisp acidity and a creamy mouthfeel. The finish is long and savory, echoing the mineral-rich calcareous clay soils of the region. Its natural complexity and structure make it a versatile companion for food—pair it with grilled sea bass, mushroom risotto, or aged Pecorino cheese to accentuate its nuanced flavors.
