Winemaker Notes
Clear, medium to full-bodied, yet agile, showing sweet minerality, honey, and green tea notes that become more incisive with age. Made from 100% Timorasso

Enticing floral, beeswax, apple and pine aromas and flavors highlights this smooth, harmonious white, which stays lively, ending with a mineral element.
Located in the small village of Vho, approximately 5 kilometers from Tortona in Piedmont, lives the boutique winery La Colombera. Owned and operated by expert wine maker Piercarlo and his daughter, an oenologist and apprentice wine maker, Elisa Semino, the wines of La Colombera represent 22 hectars of vineyards. In 2000 they decided to cultivate a very old and difficult white grape variety, Timorasso. Since then, Piercarlo and Elisa have furiously studied this ancient grape variety and planted vines in five different vineyards with the aim of cultivating Timorasso grapes unique and distinct from one another.
