Descrizione

The Piccolo Derthona DOC from La Stellara presents a bright straw-yellow color with green highlights that emphasize its freshness. On the nose it offers a balanced profile between delicate floral notes and citrus hints, with scents of field flowers, lemon peel and a slight green apple note. The aromatic profile remains discreet and fine, more geared toward precision than opulence, inviting a focused sip.

On the palate the wine shows a slender structure, with lively acidity that supports the flavors and a clean, persistent finish. The body is modern yet measured, suitable for everyday drinking as well as more curated occasions. It pairs easily with fish dishes, shellfish, grilled vegetables and fresh cheeses; it also works as an aperitif wine. Serve at around 10–12 °C and prefer a wide glass to better appreciate the aromas.

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.
