Fiore Romano

G.I.V.

Piccolo Fiore Terre Siciliane Rosso 2019

This wine is medium dark. The nose is savory, full of tar, earth, tobacco, licorice, plums and raspberries. The palate is similarly dark and savory, with sweet tannins and good acidity. I made a pasta sauce with my first pour, then enjoyed the second pour while it cooked. It was delightful. — 12 days ago

Romano Clelia

Colli di Lapio Fiano di Avellino

Beautifully aged in 2024 but still retaining its vibrancy minerality with melding of stone fruit citrus almond burnished with hint of smoke and sea flavors with great complexity and long finish it went well with lemon garlic, barbecued shrimp, grilled squash, and corn on the cob — 4 months ago

Valpolicella Superiore Corvina Blend 2009

It is easy to expect an erupting volcano in one’s mouth when you see the name Dal Forno. Yes, this was a powerful wine but thanks to sufficient acid and time in the decanter the weight and intensity of the fruit was held in check. A wonderful accompaniment to the Peking Duck.. — 8 months ago

Vigneto Monte Lodoletta Valpolicella Superiore Corvina Blend 2010

Very dense and black in colour. These wines always remind me of Fruit and Nut milk chocolate. The colour makes you think full bodied but it’s actually light to medium bodied. A luscious mouth filling palate with the savoury milk chocolate together with notes of raisin and date. Supple yet persistent tannins. Reminiscent of a Priorat Garnacha in some respects. — 2 months ago
