## Summary

A fresh Timorasso from the estate's youngest vines in Vho and Monleale.

## Tasting notes

Clear, straw yellow with greenish reflections. Fresh, floral and citrus bouquet on the nose. Dry, taut and savoury on the palate, medium-bodied, with marked acidity and great balance. The producer calls it the freshest, most immediate and lowest-alcohol Timorasso of its Colli Tortonesi production.
