Walter Massa, the leading force behind Timorasso’s renaissance, produces Sterpi, one of his most powerful and structured expressions of this distinctive Piedmontese variety. Sourced from an old-vine, limestone-rich vineyard in the Colli Tortonesi, this wine benefits from extended ripening, which enhances its depth and complexity. Fermented and aged in stainless steel with prolonged lees contact, it develops remarkable texture while maintaining freshness and precision. The nose is intense and layered, offering aromas of ripe quince, golden apple, and candied citrus, complemented by notes of acacia, wild herbs, and a striking flinty minerality. The palate is broad and richly textured, with vibrant acidity, a waxy mouthfeel, and a long, savoury finish that lingers with hints of honey, toasted almond, and wet stone. A bold and age-worthy Timorasso that exemplifies the grape’s immense potential for complexity and longevity.
