Colli Tortonesi Timorasso Doc is a white wine made from the namesake local grape variety that has been recently rediscovered. Full-bodied, it is very popular among gourmets; it belongs to the latest generation of "whites" of the province of Alessandria, despite its ancient origins. Ten years after the drafting of the production regulations, with only 50 hectares of vineyards and 400,000 bottles per year, Timorasso begins to be known and appreciated in Italy and abroad as a wine of excellence.
Depending on the ageing process, Timorasso is excellent both as an aperitif or paired with appetizers such as peppers stuffed with tuna and capers, raw meat and some slightly cured meats. It is also excellent with many pasta dishes, white meat especially if the ingredients include herbs, with fish cooked in various ways, with fresh goat cheese and of course with Montebore (traditional cheese of the area). A wonderful accompaniment to white truffles of the valleys, simply grated on tajarin noodles with butter. When young it should be served at a temperature of 10-12 °C (12-14 °C if aged).
