Tenuta La Piccola

La Spinetta

Colli Tortonesi Piccola Derthona Timorasso 2020

2020 vintage.
Timorasso is an indigenous grape from Piedmont.
7.5 hectare vineyard of 25 year old vines grown in marly, calareous, clay and sandy soil.
Stainless steel ferment followed by 8 months resting on the lees then 3 months of bottle ageing before release.
Giorgio Rivetti, owner of La Spinetta, considers Timorasso as the white Nebbiolo.
Will easily age 5-10 years.
Bright, brilliant straw gold.
Stone fruit, ripe nectarines, Acacia honey and white flowers.
Layers of flavours with tropical fruit, almonds and bergamot.
This wine dances a fine line between smooth texture, citrus, minerals and flowers.

Château Pédesclaux

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2014

This is same vintage which I drank 2 years ago. Almost same decanting time like 1.5 hours, much different. Aroma is same, oak and black currant. Tanning is rounded more and drinkable. But 3 years or more, it would be much better. Last time, it was solid, then I felt it would be concentrated later, but this would be mid body and elegancy. 2014 @1663, xiaduo Piccola, 211116-211119 — 2 years ago
