More questions
This magnum-format bottle, available on request, comes from La Stellara and bears the Derthona DOC designation. It shows a straw-yellow colour with bright reflections; on the nose there are delicate aromas of white-fleshed fruit, citrus and light floral notes, accompanied by a mineral texture that gives drive. On the palate it offers a fresh, harmonious progression, with balanced acidity and a clean finish that invites drinking. Subtle aromatic nuances complete the picture and enrich its profile.
Suitable for convivial occasions, the magnum format makes an impressive table presence and encourages sharing. It pairs with light seafood dishes, vegetable-based starters and fresh cheeses, but can also work as an aperitif wine. Serve well chilled in large glasses to allow the aromas to open; store in a cool, light-free place. Specific information on vintage and grape composition is available on request from the producer. The magnum format is particularly suitable for social evenings and can be ordered on request in limited quantities.

The story
La Stellara was born from the conversion of a cascina in the Colli Tortonesi into a small wine estate. The founders came to winemaking after diverse professional experiences and training in oenology and tasting; their research into Timorasso and the local terroir guided the establishment of the vineyard and production, with the first bottles released in limited quantities to enter the market.
Production philosophy
The estate states a respectful approach to the land and the local identity, with attention to quality in the vineyard and technical choices aimed at preserving the wines' aromas. The estate's narrative references integrated management and the desire to sincerely express the characteristics of Derthona/Timorasso.
Terroir and vineyards
The winery is located in Volpedo, in the heart of the Colli Tortonesi. The area is described as part of the Colli Tortonesi, contiguous with the Langhe, and characterised by soils well suited to the expression of native grape varieties such as Timorasso.
