Note di degustazione
With only 3,133 bottles produced, the Roagna 2020 Derthona Montemarzino is an interesting and unusual wine. There is an almost herbal preface with minty apple and lemon thyme that cedes to softer white peach and quince. Timorasso gains in complexity as it ages, picking up elegant petroleum-like nuances and dusty mineral sensations with time. The 2020 vintage was warm, so it goes to stand that the wine is all about primary fruit now. But it should be worthwhile to come back and visit this bottle in five or 10 years' time.

The 2020 Timorasso Derthona Montemarzino is a very beautiful and expressive white. Savory and mineral accents are front and center. Taut and nervous, with terrific energy, the 2020 is a fine example of what Timorasso can be. Dried lemon peel, almond, mint, graphite, chamomile and spice all take shape with a bit of coaxing. Readers who are not familiar with Timorasso should expect a phenolic, dry white with a ton of aromatic and flavor complexity, but not much forward fruit. This is a wine for the dinner table.
