2016 Dal Forno Romano Vigneto Monte Lodoletta Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG

(95 Points) Dark and dense, this reveals itself slowly, teasing fragrant accents of tarry smoke, graphite, coffee liqueur and warm spices before flavors of blackberry paste, plum cake, stemmy herbs and cocoa powder begin to unfurl. This is tightly meshed, with a core of grippy tannins creating a compact feel today. - Wine Spectator
