La Spinetta Colli Tortonesi Timorasso 2024 (1x75cl)

Timorasso is a white grape from the hills of eastern Piedmont, and it almost got lost before local growers brought it back. It is not a light aperitif white — it usually has real body, so it can sit beside roast chicken, steamed fish with ginger, or a plate of pasta with cream sauce without disappearing.

Good pick if you want to bring a white to dinner that nobody at the table has tried yet. Chill it, but not ice cold, or you lose the texture.

Tasting notes

Timorasso from this area typically shows citrus and stone fruit, a touch of honey and herbs with a little age, and a dry, slightly mineral finish with more weight than most Italian whites.
