Has an enticing nose, with prune, tar, espresso and dried nuts. Full- to medium-bodied, with good supportive tannins that turn chewy on the finish and lots of dark chocolate and mocha that linger at the end. This will be worth the wait. Superintense and layered. Like a baby vintage Port. A new passito wine from Dal Forno. Best after 2009. 700 cases made. –JC

The 2003 Vigna Sere is not a new wine from Dal Forno, rather it is the former Recioto which, in this vintage, the local DOCG tasting commission rejected in its infinite wisdom. The wine possesses incredible richness and density with plenty of super-ripe dark fruit, plums, chocolate and roasted coffee beans. This opulent, generous sweet wine shows excellent balance, even if the tannins dry out somewhat on the finish, something that is unfortunately quite common in wines of this vintage. This is an especially structured dessert wine that needs to be paired with rich cheeses or chocolate-based desserts to offer its greatest pleasure. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2018. All of these wines from Romano Dal Forno require significant aeration to show the true breadth of this passionate grower’s innovative style. Ideally the wines should be cellared for a minimum of a few years. Readers in search of short-term gratification are advised to open these bottles at least eight to ten hours before serving. This also holds for the Valpolicella, which has become an especially massive, structured wine after Dal Forno started producing it from 100% dried fruit in the 2002 vintage. Dal Forno favors 100% new American oak for his wines, although in recent years he has brought the aging regime down considerably.

Dal Forno Romano
Cave réputée pour ses célèbres Amarone della Valpolicella, Dal Forno Romano est également à l’origine de deux autres vins élaborés dans le même esprit d’excellence à partir de ses propres vignobles : la Valpolicella Superiore et la Vigna Seré. Même si ce terroir de premier plan est passé entre les mains de quatre générations de la famille Dal Forno, la cave elle-même n’a été fondée qu’en 1983. Romano Dal Forno, créateur de l’un des plus grands vins italiens, est né et a grandi au milieu des vignes familiales. Animé d’une passion pour le vin, il lui dédie l’œuvre de sa vie, développant des techniques viticoles et œnologiques uniques. Niché dans la vallée d’Illasi, à l’est de Vérone, Dal Forno Romano privilégie un équilibre parfait entre tradition et technologie. Les cuvées qui en découlent se caractérisent par une concentration exceptionnelle et une abondance d’arômes et de saveurs intenses. Vouant un culte à la qualité et à des exigences rigoureuses, Romano Dal Forno a érigé Dal Forno au premier rang des vignerons de Valpolicella les plus adulés, voire vénérés.
