About this wine
Vigneti Boveri Giacomo Piazzera Derthona Timorasso, Colli Tortonesi
Vigneti Boveri Giacomo's Piazzera Derthona Timorasso showcases the unique character of Colli Tortonesi. This wine is crafted from Timorasso, a grape once on the brink of extinction, now celebrated for its complexity and ageing potential. Sourced from the Piazzera vineyard, known for its calcareous clay soils, the grapes benefit from optimal sun exposure, ensuring full ripeness and vibrant acidity.
Winemaker Walter Massa, a pioneer in reviving Timorasso, employs meticulous practices to maintain the grape’s integrity. The wine is fermented in stainless steel to preserve its natural freshness, then aged on fine lees, adding depth and texture.
Expect aromas of ripe stone fruits, citrus zest, and subtle floral notes. The palate offers layered flavours of pear, quince, and a touch of minerality, balanced by crisp acidity. With a rich mouthfeel and a lingering finish, this Timorasso pairs beautifully with seafood and aged cheeses.

They declassified the 2020 and 2021 vintages, but thought 2022 was good enough to bottle as their flagship.
Lemon oil, green apple, chamomile, mint and honey, and quite some perfume here. It’s firm and a bit more serious and savoury than the other wines in 2022, has some tang in with ripe white stone fruit, a firm dusty almost white pepper texture, with green olive on a finish of excellent length. Very good.

This is delicious drinking and effortless here. Pulpy grapefruit, green apple of the hazy juice variety, strong pickled green tomato and saline mineral notes, very green pear, Real Lemonade and dill herbal notes. It’s feisty and bright, very zingy and zappy but has inward juiciness and hence the drinkability is through the roof. Relative lightweight for the variety and producer, but has mettle in its varied elements to create the word complexity. Finesse also should be said here.
