Description / Reviews
Massa winemaker Walter Massa reinvigorated the grape and the Colli Tortesoni region, working 23 hectares of indigenous grapes (Barbera, Croata, Freisa), with the flagship of Derthona since way back in the 1980s. East facing vineyard with mar and calcerous soils at an altitude of 300m. Macerated on its skins for 60 hours, indigenous yeasts, lots of battonage. Minimum 12 months bottle ageing. All accounts mention acacia, hawthorn, pear, honey. Acid drive, fresh, balanced and striking. Ages like a dream. - Our Notes
