The wine

The Valpolicella Superiore is made from Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, Oseleta and other complementary varieties, on alluvial gravel and clay soils. Since 2002 all the grapes are dried for about six weeks, with the same rigour as for Amarone, giving a red of great concentration that retains freshness.

Tasting notes

Ripe cherry and plum, black pepper, spice, cocoa and tobacco. The palate is elegant and dense, with velvety tannins and a long finish.

The producer

Romano Dal Forno

Romano Dal Forno began making wine under his own name in 1983 in the Val d'Illasi, having learned from Giuseppe Quintarelli; his family has farmed vines for four generations. The vineyards are planted at very high density, nearly 13,000 vines per hectare, with very low yields per vine.
