La Spinetta is a relative newcomer for Piedmont being founded only 43 years ago! The vineyards all possess a bit of age (35 - 65yrs) and all sites are amongst the best locations of their respective appellations.
"Year after year Giorgio Rivetti's Piedmont winery has earned a fame that has made it a leading ambassador of Langhe wine thro ughout the world, and the labels with the rhinoceros are present in the finest restaurants on all continents." Gambero Rosso
“This is very good wine - with the same flavour silhouette as a top Chablis but with a far more exotic disposition! Made from the rarely seen Timorasso variety, by the great Giorgio Rivetti.” Matthew Jukes
The latest addition to the La Spinetta range, now making its debut in Australia. It’s hardly new in that this ancient grape’s potential has long been known, and the Rivetti family’s vines are 25 years old. 100% Timorasso from vineyards in the towns of Montemarzino and Montegioco. Timorasso is an ancient vine indigenous to Piedmont. Delicate citrus and floral notes. On the palate it is savoury and generous, it finishes clean and persistent.
Sustainably farmed, with no use of pesticides or herbicides.
