Jermann "SO BE IT" Friuli Venezia Giulia 2018

Jermann "SO BE IT" Friuli Venezia Giulia 2018 

Tasting test: The “cosi sia” has an ancient golden yellow color, bright and shining. Intense and elegant perfume that expresses complexity, initially with notes of ripe, dried and toasted fruit, then with hints of honey, sweet spices, wax and incense. In the mouth it is dry, warm and persistent. It expresses softness and balance at the same time. The long finish is characterized by fresh and savory notes that support and amplify the aromatic component.

To be accompanied with:spicy and elaborate first courses, second courses of white meat and fish, which contrast the softness of the wine. Serving temperature 12°-14°C. (From tasting Gianni Ottogalli AIS Udine).

Resolutions and suggestions: The intention in producing the "so be it" was to obtain a simple and straightforward wine that reflected the processing methods of past generations. Since it is a very delicate wine which has undergone few treatments in the cellar, fermented without the addition of sulfur dioxide, left in contact with the skin for a few days and unfiltered, it is recommended to keep the bottles laid out in a cool, dry place (12°-15° C) avoiding exposing them directly to light. During aging the wine may present a deposit, therefore, we recommend placing the bottle in a vertical position a few days before consumption or, if necessary, serving it delicately.

Curiosity:  On the occasion of the "Thanksgiving Feast" on November 11, 2006, Archbishop Monsignor Dino De Antoni blessed the barrel of "so be it" with Alojz Felix and Sylvia Tunina last born in the Jermann family, this moment was reported on the 2006 label.
