" We don't sell the wine without touching the vine "
Wine from Romano Dal Forno
Filter
Emerging as one of the standout wineries not only in Veneto, but throughout Italy as a whole, Dal Forno unquestionably exemplifies the viticultural excellence of Valpolicella. This winery’s prestigious and elegant interpretations have significantly elevated the global stature of Amarone, making it a pivotal reference point for the region.
In the early 1980s, after having worked for the renowned Giuseppe Quintarelli, Romano Dal Forno took the helm of the family estate in Cellore d’Illasi, aiming for the highest quality through a meticulous and perfectionist approach. It is through this unwavering attention to detail that he has crafted superior wines, harmoniously blending cutting-edge technology with the traditional wine-making principles of the area. Today, Romano is assisted by his sons Marco, Luca, and Michele, who support him in both the agronomic, enological, and commercial aspects.

Ferren Chardonnay Volpert Vineyard is 100 percent Chardonnay.
At the end of Taylor Lane outside of the coastal village of Occidental lies Volpert Vineyard. With the Pacific Ocean in sight, this vineyard resides at the far western edge of the West Sonoma Coast AVA. As such, this may be the source of our most high-toned and mineral laden wines. Owned by the Volpert family and farmed organically by Greg Adams, these five acres of heritage clone Pinot noir and Chardonnay are at the absolute cutting edge of Sonoma Coast viticulture.
Review:
Aromatic and distinctive, with a hint of smoked sea salt up front. Offers flavors of pear, yellow apple and peach at the core, with lime zest and herbal accents of lemon verbena, lemon balm and honeysuckle, plus a touch of fresh ginger. All of the flavors reverberate with fresh acidity and cardamom details on the finish. Drink now through 2038.—M.W."
