Castrum Roche Derthona Colli Tortonesi Timorasso 2024

Castrum Roche Derthona Colli Tortonesi Timorasso 2024 is a fresh expression of one of Piedmont’s most distinctive white grapes, Timorasso, from the historic Derthona area in Colli Tortonesi. Known for its character, structure, and ability to develop beautifully over time, Timorasso has become a sought-after wine for lovers of serious Italian whites.

Tasting Notes
Pale straw in the glass, this vintage typically shows a bright, youthful sheen and a mineral-driven profile. The nose leans toward citrus peel, white flowers, green apple, and subtle stone fruit, with a distinctive earthy, smoky, or flinty edge that gives the wine extra depth. On the palate, it is fresh and precise, with ripe orchard fruit balanced by lively acidity and a firm, textured mouthfeel. Timorasso is prized for its aging potential, and even at a young age it often shows more weight and complexity than many other wines in its category, promising greater nuance with time in bottle.

Production
Produced in the Colli Tortonesi zone of southeastern Piedmont, Derthona Timorasso reflects a terroir of marl, limestone, and clay soils that contribute to the grape’s signature minerality and structure. Harvesting is typically done by hand to preserve fruit quality, followed by careful vinification designed to protect freshness and bring out the grape’s natural aromatic complexity.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs well with seafood risotto, grilled shellfish, roasted poultry, mushroom dishes, and rich vegetable preparations. Serve it lightly chilled, around 10–12°C, and consider a short decant if you want to open up its aromatic layers, especially when the wine is young.
