Mineral, intense, irresistible
Timorasso La Spinetta is born from an ancient native Piedmontese vine. A wine of extraordinary structure and surprising longevity. The delicate hydrocarbon notes play in concert with citrus and floral hints, which return upon tasting.

On the palate it is savory and generous, with a clean and persistent finish.
