The 2011 Vintage Tunina is a blend of Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Ribolla Gialla, Malvasia Istriana and Picolit that shows impressive density and integrity. The wine feels silky smooth and pleasurable on the palate, imparting stone fruit, preserved lemon and sun-ripened Golden Delicious apple. The fruit characteristics are exceptionally well presented and the wine offers enough heft on the close to pair with vegetable pasta dishes or asparagus risotto. Drink: 2014-2018.
Producer
Jermann Silvio
Heir of a traditional Friulian winery, Silvio Jermann is the man behind Italy’s booming new movement, an era of innovative white vinification. Founded by his great-grandfather, Anton, in the late 1880s, when Silvio came along, he was the first to introduce stainless steel vats in all of Italy. His vision of clean, chiseled, vibrant wines has been and continues to be achieved day in and day out. His extraordinary, multi-layered, extract-loaded whites have become reference points in modern viniculture. Today, the estate stretches over 130 hectares in the mountainous Friuli-Venezia Fiulia region, and consists of two wineries, Villanova and Ruttars. The Jermann brand produces a wide range of reds and whites - each expressing the very essence of their varietal character with precision and class.
