Optimal Cellaring \u0026amp; Aging Potential:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wine in a larger bottle ages demonstrably better than in a standard 750ml format. The ratio of wine to air trapped in the neck of the bottle (the ullage) is significantly lower. This slower, gentler oxygen exchange allows the wine to develop complexity and tertiary characteristics over a longer period, preserving its freshness and vitality for years, sometimes decades. Invest in a Magnum today, and you are investing in the wine of tomorrow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2.

The estate vineyards and farm are located where the slopes begin to rise toward the mountains and sit 1,000 feet above sea level. The loose, alluvial soils, meticulous pruning and scrupulous viticultural techniques ensure remarkable-quality grapes. The Dal Fornos use traditional methods to grow the finest fruit, and then employ modern techniques to produce the best wines - classic in expression and modern in purity. The varietal composition of the Dal Forno Romano Valpolicella Superiore 2017 is Corvina (70%), Rondinella (20%), Croatina (5%) and Oseleta (5%). Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks equipped with a sophisticated computerised system that allows automatic punching-down over a period of around 15 days, including the final two days of maceration. After racking, the Valpolicella rests for a few days in stainless steel tanks, which thanks to their special shape, allow easy decanting, and is then matured in new barriques. For the 2017 vintage, the Valpolicella was aged for 36 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Taking this in reminds me of all of the desserts, spices and confections experienced on Christmas day.
