Reccioto from blend of corvina oseleta & rodinella; opulent spice, black fruits, dense cocoa, blackberry, balance of tannin and fruit & fine crunchy fruit tannin. Can't keep it in the glass long enough.

Made only six times in the past 33 years and not at all since 2004 (at least not yet released), this is a stunning rarity and the jewel of the iconic Dal Forno portfolio. Medium dry with plenty of acidity and crunchy fruit to maintain exceptional balance. While the Amarone grapes are dried about 19 days, the grapes for this recioto are dried for 40 days. Intense black fruit, print, tar and mocha. Surprisingly the wine is wonderfully fresh and delicious. Extremely long finish

Recioto della Valpolicella at its best. Super complex, the closest thing to Porto we may have in Italy (but at 14% alcohol). Awesome wine.

My fondness for sweet wines combined with the great concentration and eternal finish of this wine does not allow me to even consider a lower rating.

This is a special wine to be enjoyed with soft creamy cheeses. The 2004 is it’s best expression. Loved it.
