The Tunina grapes come from one of the best vineyards in Jermann. The color of this wine is straw yellow gold, the aroma intense, full, with hints of honey and wild flowers. The taste is full and round, velvety with a nice long finish. For this special combination of grapes, the picking takes place approximately two weeks later than the normal harvest. The name Tunina refers to the previous owner of the land on which the vineyard is located and is also dedicated to a governess from Venice, mistress of Cassanova, who was called Tunina, the diminutive of Antonia, as her real name was.

The 2019 vintage is one of the best vintages. Suckling (97/100) writes: "....One of the best I have tasted in a long time. Drink or hold"
