ROMANO DAL FORNO
Romano Dal Forno took control of his Valpolicella wine estate at the age of 22 and quickly turned the Veneto’s maestro, Giuseppe Quintarelli for advice. A policy of low yields and an uncompromising drive for quality has established the Dal Forno family as the producers amongst the finest producing from dried grapes - an otherworldly Amarone, a complex Valpolicella Superiore and a deliciously sweet Recioto. The area has been proven, by Romano, as a magnificent terroir for Valpolicella wines. Dal Forno is now one of the most collectable and sought-after wines in Italy.NEW RELEASES

TASTING NOTES
Waves of dark chocolate, leather, and smoked meat pour out of the glass, with a hint of dried flowers and a note of honey and caramel. The freshness and lift on the palate is truly remarkable, balancing a luscious, rich texture with pleasing tannic structure and superb polish. Already very open and accessible.
