Derthona DOC - La Stellara is a white wine with the Derthona DOC designation, produced by La Stellara. It shows a luminous straw-yellow color; on the nose it offers a composed, pleasant profile with notes of white flowers, ripe citrus and light mineral nuances. On the palate it delivers good freshness, a balance between acidity and structure and a saline texture that supports a rather persistent finish without excess. The overall character remains elegant and measured, suitable for those seeking a restrained expression of the designation.

It works well on its own as an aperitif or paired with fish dishes, shellfish, light soups and grilled vegetables; it also pairs nicely with fresh cheeses and simple preparations featuring delicate ingredients. Serve slightly chilled, around 10–12 °C; open the bottle shortly before serving to appreciate the aromas. Storage in a cellar at stable temperature preserves organoleptic qualities for the short to medium term. The description aims to guide choice without claiming an absolute judgement.

Winery history
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.
