About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards lie in Venezia Giulia on soils made up mainly of marl and sandstone. They face southwest and northeast.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested in early September. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 16 °C and lasts 20 days.

Ageing

The wine spends around six months on the lees in stainless steel tanks, followed by several months in bottle.

Tasting profile

Like all of Silvio Jermann's wines, it is very enjoyable when young and develops its typical Chardonnay character more fully with age.
