Valpolicella is a wine district in north-eastern Italy, in the province of Verona. The main grape variety in Valpolicella is Corvina, an Italian grape native to the region, to which other local grape varieties are added to increase the colour and tannins. Valpolicella wines can carry the label Superiore if they are at least 12% alcohol and have undergone at least one year of aging.
Dal Forno Romano Valpolicella Superiore is made from of blend of grapes including Corvina, Rondinella, Coratina and Oseleta, left to air dry for 45 days. After rigorous quality control, pressing, and fermentation processes the wine is left to age for 24 long months, after which the wine is filtered and bottled and left for another 36 months before the final product is ready for sale.

Coming from a semi-drying with the same refinement as for Amarone, this Valpolicella Valpolicella Superiore Monte Lodoletta 2017 is overflowing with dense concentration and an inky color. This 2017 vintage features a pungent nose of violets, amarena cherry, dried fig and lightly charred oak. Some caramel notes emerge with the air, accompanied by more pressed flowers. Complete and penetrating, less full-bodied than full-bodied, it envelops the palate with silky, fine and polished tannins. This Valpolicella Superiore is very impressive!
