Corvinoni
Filter
Corvinoni, or Corvinone, is relatively new to wine lovers as it was formally added in 1993 by the National Catalogue of Varieties of Vine Wine. Corvinoni gives a nose of perfume and is fruity or spicy on the pallet. Corvinoni is full-bodied with a good amount of tannins. Corvinoni is often used to produce Amarone and Recioto Valpolicella wines. Corvinoni is known for the large leaves and grape clusters with compact generous berries. There are two biotypes of this grape, Corbinon and Cruinon. The size of the grape, in addition to the leaves, are different as well as the different aging times. The name Corvinoni is derived from the rich black color that is reminiscent of the inky dark color of a raven’s feathers. It could also be derived from the corba that was transferred to the grape baskets during heavy harvesting. The Corvinoni grape does exceptionally well in stony soils, hilly regions with considerable exposure. Corvinoni is sensitive to botrytis and other diseases like sour rot. It can also be susceptible to mildew and spine desiccation.

Dal Forno Romano Valpolicella Superiore is made from Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, Oseleta and Croatina grown at the Monte Lodoletta estate in the Val d'Illasi, eastern Valpolicella.
One of Italy's most iconic producers, Romano Dal Forno revolutionized Valpolicella winemaking with an obsessive pursuit of quality. The grapes are hand-harvested with meticulous selection, then dried for approximately 45 days in the estate's patented, computer-controlled appassimento rooms. After pressing, the wine is fermented in custom-designed stainless steel tanks and aged for 24 months in new French oak barrels, followed by extended bottle aging before release.
Deep ruby in color with aromas of blueberry, blackberry, cherry and cocoa. Full-bodied and opulent on the palate with powerful yet polished tannins, layers of dark fruit, sweet spice, tobacco and chocolate. Despite its remarkable concentration, the wine maintains an elegant freshness and balance. Pairs beautifully with grilled or roasted red meats, game and aged cheeses.
14.5% ABV
A perfumed and elegant wine with subtle aromas of balsamic, coconut, dark bramble fruit, jasmine, mulberries, red cherries and chocolate. It’s spicy rather than fruity. On the palate it shows salted chocolate flavors and a full body. It’s crisp, zesty and velvety, with creamy tannins and a graphite finish. It shows tension despite its concentrated style. It will be released in January 2027. Try then or hold.

A heavenly, full-bodied dry Riesling with forceful minerality from 100-year-old vines grown in the blue slate soil of Graach.
Graach is a small village in the Mosel valley. It’s steep slate slopes produce wines that combine elegance with rustic strength. Grosses Gewächs (GG) is the designation for an estate’s best dry wine from a Grosse Lage (grand cru) vineyard. This limited-production wine was fermented with indigenous yeasts and kept in the barrel, on the full lees, for a year before bottling. The extended maturation time allows the wine to develop greater texture and a deeper natural harmony. This is a fully ripe wine, with vibrant aromatics and a pronounced acidity that gives it a brilliant structural precision.
Review:
Convincing proof that 2020 is an excellent vintage for dry GG on the Mosel! Cool and stony with delicate white-peach and white-currant aromas. Really takes off at the intensely slatey and racy finish.
