The 2023 Claudio Mariotto Derthona Timorasso Colli Tortonesi is a full-bodied dry white wine from Piedmont, Italy, produced by a leading name in the revival of the indigenous Timorasso grape
. It presents a medium-intensity, straw-yellow color and an intense, complex bouquet with notes of stone fruits like peach and pear, floral hints of chamomile and acacia, and a distinctive mineral, flinty character. On the palate, the wine is silky and voluminous, offering layers of fruit, citrus, and minerals, balanced by a lively acidity and a touch of salinity that creates a long, persistent, and mouthwatering finish. Produced from grapes grown in the clay and limestone marl soils of the Tortona hills and aged for a year on its lees in stainless steel, this benchmark wine showcases the layered texture, mineral depth, and aging potential of the Timorasso variety. Best served chilled at 10–12°C, it is versatile enough to pair with rich cheeses, crustaceans, white meats, and vegetable pies.
