Jermann Capo Martino 2022

Jermann Capo Martino In Rotars 2022 is a refined white wine from Friuli-Venezia Giulia that showcases the elegance and depth of the region’s indigenous varieties. Sourced from a single historic hillside vineyard, it offers a harmonious balance between richness, freshness and aromatic complexity. Named after the Capo Martino hill purchased in 1991, this wine represents Jermann’s tribute to Friuli’s traditional white blends brought into a modern, polished style.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, Capo Martino 2022 typically presents a bright straw-yellow color with golden reflections, hinting at both ripeness and concentration. The nose is layered and expressive: expect notes of ripe stone fruits like apricot and peach, alongside yellow plum, citrus peel, wildflowers and Mediterranean herbs. Subtle hints of honey, almond and sweet spice emerge with air, adding further nuance. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet poised, with a creamy texture supported by lively, saline acidity. Flavors mirror the nose—ripe orchard and stone fruits, preserved lemon, and floral tones—interwoven with a delicate nuttiness and a long, mineral-driven finish. The balance of fruit, structure and freshness suggests very good aging potential; over the next 5–8 years, the wine should gain more complexity, developing notes of honey, dried flowers and toasted nuts while retaining its underlying vibrancy.

Production
Capo Martino comes from a 7.5-hectare single vineyard in the heart of the Collio/Gorizia hills in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, an area famed for its marl and sandstone soils that give wines their characteristic minerality and depth. The vineyard, purchased by Jermann in 1991 and carefully renovated between 1996 and 2003, is planted with traditional local white varieties selected for balance and complexity. Grapes are typically hand-harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve both aromatic intensity and natural acidity. After gentle pressing, the must is vinified in temperature-controlled conditions, often with a combination of stainless steel and large or neutral wood to enhance texture without overwhelming the varietal character. The resulting blend is assembled with meticulous attention to harmony, then allowed to rest on fine lees to build complexity, mouthfeel and length.

Food & Serving
Capo Martino 2022 is a versatile gastronomic white, ideal for refined dishes. It pairs beautifully with shellfish (scallops, lobster, langoustines), rich fish preparations, risotto with seafood or saffron, roast poultry, veal in delicate sauces and refined vegetable dishes such as asparagus or artichoke-based plates. It can also complement aged cheeses and regional Friulian specialties. Serve at 10–12°C (50–54°F) to highlight its aromatic profile and freshness. A short decant of 20–30 minutes, or simply opening the bottle ahead of serving, helps the wine open up and reveal its full range of aromas and textural complexity.
