In Italy there are native white wines that surprise with their identity and that represent their terroir in a unique and original way, with an important longevity. Let’s discover together, from north to south, 3 exceptional and very expressive wines: Timorasso, originally from Tortona in Piedmont, is an elegant and powerful wine, characterized by varietal notes, which grows on clayey-calcareous soils. Its main characteristics are longevity, minerality and structure. Verdicchio, symbol of Marche, derives its name from the green color of young wines. It is characterized by a complex aromatic profile with notes of peach, citrus, almond and herbaceous nuances. Its structure is oily and fresh thanks to its high acidity, and it can age even 10-15 years. Fiano, grown mainly in Campania, is a white grape variety known for structured and complex wines. It has aromas of walnuts, hazelnuts, flowers, honey, spices and tropical fruit. The most prestigious denomination is Fiano di Avellino, produced in Irpinia, recognized for its minerality and excellent aging potential.
