Our selection made from grapes of the over 90-year vineyard named Tantéi.
The great heterogeneity of such old vines yields grapes, which are rich in variations, the same complexity that distinguishes this harmonious, zesty and extremely persistent wine.
Overview
Grape: timorasso 100%
Alcohol: 13%
Bottle size: 0.75l
Processing: gentle grape pressing followed by temperature-controlled alcoholic fermentation in concrete tanks. At the end of alcoholic fermentation, the wine goes into seasoned French-oak, 500L tonneaux for a brief passage of about 7 days. The wine is then returned to concrete tanks where it will remain on the fine lees with occasional batonnage for at least 12 months before a delicate filtration and bottling.

Tasting advice
Serving suggestion: Timorasso is a precious wine suitable to the whole meal. It excels as an accompaniment to tasty and cured cheese. It is an elegant support to dishes of white meat, patès and vegetarian servings. Timorasso enhances also the taste of the famous Piemontese ‘white truffle’.
