About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

Silvio Jermann personally oversees the vineyard. Yields are low, and the harvest is timed precisely so that the grapes reach full potential.

Vinification

Picking takes place in early September, which gives a balance between aromatic ripeness and natural acidity. The Pinot Bianco is vinified by the traditional method for white wines. Fermentation lasts 20 days at a maximum of 16 °C.

Ageing

The wine rests 6 months on fine lees in stainless steel tanks, which gives it roundness and depth. After bottling it matures for several more months in bottle. It is sealed with a screw cap.

Tasting profile

Refined and full-flavoured, with a balance of taste and aroma. Elegant, with bright acidity, a fine saline note and intense fruit aromas. The lees ageing adds roundness and depth, and the palate is balanced and harmonious.

Serving and pairing

Suited to fried dishes, seafood soups and pasta.

Label / history

Made since 1974. The text calls Pinot Bianco a true rarity in Friuli.
