VIGNETI MASSA DERTHONA TAPPO CLASSICO 750 ml

Description

Discover Vigneti Massa Derthona Tappo Classico, a distinctive white wine hailing from Italy's Apennine and pre-Apennine hills in the historic marca Obertenga. This expression captures the essence of white grapes long tied to these rugged landscapes, varieties that faced near oblivion after phylloxera swept through. Once confined to just four hectares around 2000, these vines have staged a remarkable comeback, now spanning 150 hectares under the care of more than forty dedicated producers.

From Vigneti Massa's hands comes this Derthona, shaped by a meticulous approach starting with cold maceration lasting around 40 to 45 hours. That leads into a full year of fermentation in stainless steel tanks, accompanied by regular batonnage with the lees over another 12 months. The result reflects a deep connection to the terrain, offering a sip into a lineage revived against the odds.

At 13.50% ABV and in a standard 750 ml bottle, Vigneti Massa Derthona Tappo Classico stands as an invitation to explore an Italian white wine beyond the ordinary. It's the product of collective effort in a region where tradition meets resurgence, perfect for those seeking bottles with a story etched in the hills. Imagine uncorking this at your table, where every pour echoes the determination of growers who brought back what was nearly lost.

Whether pairing with fresh seafood or simply savoring solo, this wine from the OTHER white varietals category delivers a sense of place that's hard to find elsewhere. Producers like Vigneti Massa champion these grapes, turning hillside heritage into something tangible in your glass.
