Derthona DOC Surge - La Stellara is a white wine from La Stellara, a label that interprets the Derthona DOC designation indicated in the name with restraint. It shows a bright straw colour and an aromatic profile where notes of white flowers and citrus peel emerge, supported by a mineral background and balanced freshness. On the palate it offers modest body, lively acidity and moderate persistence, which make for an easy, unpretentious drinking experience.

It is recommended to serve it chilled, around 10–12 °C, in relatively large glasses to appreciate its aromas. It pairs simply with light seafood dishes, grilled fish, vegetable-based antipasti and fresh cheeses, but can also work as an aperitif wine. Storage and service follow normal practices for white wines; for information on vintages and specific characteristics it is preferable to consult the producer's indications. Available through regular retail channels.

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.
