Dal Forno Romano Vigneto Monte Lodoletta Valpolicella Superiore 2014 750ml

Vigneto Monte Lodoletta Valpolicella Superiore 2014 In the challenging 2014 vintage, Dal Forno opted against making any Amarone and decided to focus on its Valpolicella Superiore. This stunning,... complex wine shows the wisdom of that choice! Oscillating between sweet cherries and tart blackberries, bright acidity and intense dry extract, juicy fruits and savory underpinnings, this wine is a marvel. Notes of cigar wrapper, licorice, Christmas cake, chocolate and game ebb and flow. This broad-shouldered beauty is nimble and powerful — an absolute must that will drink for decades.

Dal Forno Romano Vigneto Monte Lodoletta Valpolicella Superiore 2004 750ml

Vigneto Monte Lodoletta Valpolicella Superiore 2004 This massive, inky-dark 2004 Valpolicella Superiore explodes from the glass with a shower of cassis, ripe plums, wild berries and secondary notes... of balsamic herbs, cigar wrapper, dark chocolate, spice, and espresso. Tannins feel firm and chewy, suggesting that even with almost two decades of age, this wine is only now creeping into its drinking window, and it has decades ahead of it. This intense wine is nonetheless detailed and finessed — it just needs more time in the cellar or abundant aeration for true enjoyment.
