Pinot-Grigio Venezia Giulia IGT 2023

  Jermann's Pinot Grigio from Friuli is a white wine of remarkable clarity and elegance. It is made from 100% Pinot Grigio grapes that thrive on marl and sandstone soils of a flysch formation (Eocene) - partly transformed into rocky sublayers. The vineyards extend in a southwestern and northeastern direction, which, together with cool nights, slows down fruit development and preserves acidity. After harvesting in September, gentle fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. The wine matures on the lees for about six months and is stored in the bottle for several months before bottling.

In the glass, it is light straw yellow with delicate coppery reflections. Its bouquet is intense and fruity, with a clear freshness - aromas of ripe pears, yellow apples, white melon, and subtle herbs combine with floral notes and fine spice. On the palate, the Pinot Grigio is dry, soft but not heavy, with pronounced minerality, well-balanced acidity, and a harmonious, long-lasting finish. A versatile accompaniment to fish soups, grilled fish, or porcini mushroom dishes, it embodies the essence of Friuli with great purity and style. - Gerardo [TS10/24]
