Jermann Blau & Blau 2023

Jermann Blau & Blau 2023 is a distinctive red from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, blending Franconia (Frankovka) with Pinot Noir for a characterful expression of Trevenezie. Its combination of herbal, woodland notes and 16 months in French oak makes it an elegant choice for lovers of structured, food-friendly reds.

Tasting Notes
Deep ruby in colour, it opens with clear herbal aromas and hints of forest floor. The palate is dry, elegant and well structured, with a harmonious balance and tannins rounded by oak maturation. No specific cellaring window is provided; enjoy it with a little air to let its aromatic detail emerge.

Production
The grapes come from vineyards near Dolegna del Collio, where southwest-facing slopes and shallow colluvial soils formed from the Eocene terrain of Monte Fortino contribute local mineral and herbal character. The wine is matured for 16 months in French oak barrels. Harvesting and vinification details are not specified.

Food & Serving
A natural match for Central European cooking, try it with smoked pork loin and horseradish, savoury pasta dishes or mature cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C. Decant for around one hour before serving.

Producer
Jermann is based in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, a region celebrated for distinctive wines shaped by varied soils and Central European influences. The producer’s Blau & Blau is a less usual red blend for the area, pairing Franconia with Pinot Noir. A charming anecdote associated with the wine recalls Truman, a much-loved puppy whose photograph with Sylvia appeared in a 2006 book about Boston Terriers.
