Derthona 2022 by Daniele Ricci is a pure Timorasso produced in the Colli Tortonesi hills of southeastern Piedmont. The grapes come from organically farmed vineyards in Costa Vescovato, where the Tortonian marl soils give the wine its distinctive minerality and structure.

Fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts and crafted with minimal intervention, the wine undergoes a short skin maceration before aging in acacia barrels. It is bottled without filtration or fining to preserve its full character. Production: 7,000 bottles.

👉 A complex and expressive Timorasso dedicated by Daniele Ricci to his son Mattia.
