Dal Forno Romano Monte Lodoletta Valpolicella Superiore 2011

Description

Such a profound nose of fresh and dried fruit with blackcurrants, dates and prunes, together with lighter notes of mild spice and pomegranate seeds. The fresher elements provide the drive on the full palate and, together with very fine, bright, fine-grained tannins, give a long, chewy yet fresh and pruney finish. Hugely concentrated, but the balance and poise is impeccable. There's no denying the classic quality of this. Delicious to taste now, but this needs a few years to integrate. Try from 2025. Score - 96. (jamessuckling.com, July 5, 2021)
