Made with native yeasts and aged in cement and stainless steel, it reflects a thoughtful approach to this distinctive Piedmont white grape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePears and peaches lead on the nose, joined by delicate acacia and hawthorn blossom. With time, the bouquet may develop notes of honey and a subtle, intriguing petroleum-like character.\n\nDry and enveloping on the palate, the wine balances lively freshness with a pronounced mineral edge and a long, persistent finish. Its structure and acidity give it the potential to develop for up to ten years under suitable cellaring conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes come from vineyards around Monleale in the Colli Tortonesi, at about 250 metres above sea level, with south-west, south and east-facing exposures. Their calcareous, silty soils contribute to the wine’s mineral character and structure. Hand-harvested in late September, the grapes undergo three days of cold skin maceration, followed by static settling. Spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts takes place in cement vats over 25 days; the wine then spends ten months in stainless steel and around seven months resting in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePair it with grilled or baked fish, shellfish, roast chicken, or fresh cheeses; its acidity and mineral edge also complement vegetable dishes with herbs. Serve lightly chilled, around 10–12°C. Decanting is not essential for a young bottle, though a little time in the glass—or a short decant for a more developed vintage—can help open up its aromas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGiacomo Borgogno e Figli presents Derthona as an expression of Timorasso and the Colli Tortonesi.
