In 1881 Anton Jermann, the founder, left the Austrian wine-growing region of Burgerland and, later, the vines of Slovenia to put down roots in Friuli Venezia Giulia.
Here he continued his winery business, and from the 1970s Silvio Jermann's combined genius and imagination took the company to undreamed-of success in wine circles, both in Italy and worldwide.
Today the Jermann estate extends over 150 hectares of which 130 hectares are vineyards and 20 hectares are given over to seed and horticultural crops. This is a company that interacts with the world every day, but its greatest attention is always reserved for the things that make a wine great. Read more

| Story | The name Tunina refers to the former owner of the land on which the original vineyard is located and is dedicated to Casanova's poorest lover, a housekeeper in Venice who was also called Tunina (Antonia). It is a wine awarded with many prizes and appreciation by Luigi Veronelli, Gambero Rosso and the Sommelier Italian Association. In addition, the Sommelier Italian Association awarded the 1997 and 1998 vintages. In conclusion, Cesare Pillon's article in 'Civiltà del bere' in October 2000 stated that: "the Vintage Tunina is exceptional in many other ways. No one has ever realised this until now, yet it is the most extraordinary wine to be enjoyed by itself in existence. It is a wine that makes you meditate'. |
