Derthona Quadro Colli Tortonesi DOC Timorasso 2023

9.0

Quite nice and drinkable. Pops big lemon, green apple, underripe pineapple, tart white citrus blend, topical melon, saline, fine powdery minerals, blooms spring flowers, grand acidity and a smartly polished finish that lasts near a minute. Crushable for $25 retail. It was served a little colder than I like my whites. Perhaps, get more out of it a bit warmer. — 3 days ago

Another wine pitched as “this region’s answer to Chablis”. In this case, it isn’t a bad description! Crisp and has a real minerally purity. Great acid and a nice long textured finish. One to keep an eye on! — 3 months ago

Gold hue. Aromas and flavors of apple, apricot, bell pepper, lemon, and petrol, with a hint of grass and creamy notes. Medium body with medium-plus acidity. Silky and rounded mouthfeel. Complex bouquet. Elegant and balanced, with a lasting finish. — 2 years ago

Very complex wine. Powerful flavor burst of lemon and lime with a touch of white pepper. Undercurrents of honeydew and tart peach with a hint of pineapple. Tart finish that plays with that teases the fruits. — 4 days ago

La Spinetta

Colli Tortonesi Timorasso 2024

This wine has a yellow-gold color in the glass with nice clarity. The nose is incredible. Minerality is the star, but there is a streak of salinity that comes across with a soapy, lanolin note. The fruit is largely apricot and Meyer lemon. On the palate, there is an explosion of stone fruit and minerality. The acidity is brisk and the finish is long and savory. This is a big white wine, one with personality to spare. — 2 months ago

Some buzz around this producer so approached with some anticipation. Restrained white flowers & confectionery Turkish delights on nose; mouthfeel quite smooth & elegant, w a stronger Riesling & Chenin Blanc presence, more of those white flowers & some RS. I’ve aged some other producers Timorasso w excellent results so see no reason this can’t do same, but this is drinking well young too. — a year ago

Give this peculiar fella some attention. Little nuances in a foreign grape that make it fun to think about.

Introverted sour apple green candy, and cleaner granny smith lemon spa water. Big body, barely noticeable.

Flinty cool mineral core with white pepper and jasmine accents.

Derthona Biancornetto Timorasso 2017

Nose is lemon floor polish in a good way. Tropical flowers. Aerating nicely. Gorgeous as it opens. Incredibly intense tropical flowers and lemons. Penetrating. Massa is more correct This is more Dali. Truly almost surreal.

Extremely rich on the palate. Tropical fruits. Not super mineral. Delicious. Juicy. Tart acidity. More like an acidic northern rhone wine than massa. Lithe juiciness on the finish. Elegant and so fine. At times acupuncture of flavors lacerate the palate. Tiny needles of flavor. So precise.

Oddero

Derthona Colli Tortonesi Timorasso 2021

Strong reductive notes upon opening, so decanted, and on day two it finally cleared up. Although muted on the nose, the wine opens nicely on the palate, with green apple, lemon, ginger, and floral notes. Medium/high acidity brings a nice freshness. Finish is the highlight, driven by a saline minerality, and the citrus and fruit notes linger on the palate for quite a while. Tasty, but doesn’t have the full body and waxy mouthfeel that is supposed to be typical of Timorasso. — a month ago
