- Pale straw shade and fruit aromas with a mineral undertone. On the palate, it is dry, fresh, and tangy with the unassuming elegance of authentic country wine. Vinnae is delicious as an aperitif and it is also an excellent match for seafood starters and first-course dishes with fish. Its freshness and irresistible drinkability make it an ideal summer white.
In the eighteenth century, the Jermann family migrated over 200 miles from Austria’s Burgenland to Biljana in Slovenia, tantalisingly close to their eventual home in Friuli. In 1881, Anton Jermann completed the final seven-mile leg of the journey to Farra d’Isonzo, where the historic family winery can be found. While the family brought a strong winemaking tradition with them, it was the vision of Anton’s great-grandson Silvio that turned the Jermann name into a reference point not only for the region, but also for Italy as a whole.
The release of Vintage Tunina, a pioneering blend of international and local varieties, sparked the revolution in 1975, but the arrival of Dreams Chardonnay in the mid-eighties, followed by Capo Martino in the early nineties, saw Jermann transcend from visionary to icon. With over 30 Tre Bicchieri awards from the Gambero Rosso guide, Jermann is rightly recognised as one of Italy’s finest producers. Jermann own a combined 170 hectares of prime vineyards at their two estates in Collio and Isonzo, and having been early advocates for sustainable agriculture, are well placed to continue their pioneering viticultural journey long into the future.
