TASTING NOTE
Intense and impenetrable ruby ??color. Seductive on the nose, it opens with notes of overripe black fruit, which are embellished with complex hints of mocha, dark chocolate, pepper and oak. The taste is full-bodied and generous, offers a velvety and smooth tannic texture, and has a superb and fascinating finish.

PAIRINGS
It is not a wine to drink during a simple Sunday lunch, but rather it is to be reserved for important occasions. Excellent with woodcock on crostini.

AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA DOCG " MONTE LODOLETTA" 2010 - DAL FORNO ROMANO: WHY WE LIKE IT
After the harvest, the bunches of grapes from all four varieties are left to dry, and only around mid-December is the pressing carried out. After fermentation, the aging takes place for 36 months in new barriques. Finally, the Amarone della Valpolicella DOC, from the Dal Forno Romano winery, is completed with two years of rest in the bottle. Sensual and persuasive, both on the nose and in the mouth, it needs no further great introduction, given, among other things, the caliber of the company that produces it. It is a great wine.
