Dal Forno Romano Winery

Romano Dal Forno produces what many consider the greatest Amarone — from his Illasi Valley estate at the eastern edge of the Valpolicella DOC. His obsessive quality pursuit (less than 3000 cases per year, 4+ years ageing before release) produces wines of almost impossible concentration and longevity.

Dal Forno Romano's Amarone is Italy's most sought-after wine alongside Sassicaia and Masseto — a 2000 or 2005 vintage commands extraordinary prices and demonstrates Amarone's potential for 30+ year ageing of the highest order.
