2002 Valpolicella Superiore

Romano Dal Forno, Veneto, Italy

Drinking 2013-2017

Scores

Shows aromas of leather, smoked ham, prune, tarry mineral and dried flowers. An amazing panoply for a 2002, which was a weak vintage. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a long, intense, peppery finish. Given the difficulties of the vintage, this is a fine effort by Dal Forno. Drink now through 2016. Wine Spectator

Tasting Notes

Bright red with mineral aromas English summer pudding. Dense and powerful with vanilla pod notes and hints of liqourice. Rich, complex finish - a very full bodied Valpolicella.

ProducerRomano 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.
