The Colli Tortonesi DOC Timorasso from Vite Colte interprets the historic variety also known as Derthona: a white wine with a strong sense of place, recognizable for its balance of freshness and structure. Originating from the Colli Tortonesi DOC designation, it offers an aromatic profile leaning toward white-fleshed fruit, ripe citrus and floral and mineral nuances; the bouquet stays clean and directly expressive, without excess. Vite Colte's approach aims to highlight the aromatic precision of Timorasso.

On the palate the wine shows a saline texture and lively acidity that support its development, with a light tannic impression and balanced persistence. It is suitable both for early drinking and for more structured gastronomic pairings: great with flavorful fish dishes, shellfish, white meats and semi-firm cheeses; it stands up to herb-based seasonings and regional cuisine preparations. Serve at around 10–12 °C.
