Dal Forno wines are a gem of its own. A real deal and an excellent end product of an intensive and meticulously winemaking process.

Both the Valpolicella and Amarone takes more than three years to complete before it's being released from Dal Forno cellar. After the grapes are picked from Mid-September to late October, the grapes are being laid down in a specific room to let it dry for 1-2months before crushing and blending. The wine is fermented in steel vats and matures in brand new barriques. It then ages for a further thirty-six months before it'll be ready for release. With a vineyard of 65acres, Dal Forno Romano only produces 40,000 bottles of Valpolicella each year, while the Amarone has only 20,000 bottles each vintage.

Just last week, we have shared a bottle of wine over lunch with Will Harlan, the son of Bill Harlan and the second generation of Napa's first growth, Harlan & Bond Estates.

The exciting meet-up wasn't for Harlan & Bond though; it's for the newest and highly anticipated wine they recently launched called "Promontory." A cabernet-based wine with a far different story from the former, different soil, at a higher elevation, and a place where you would feel thousands of miles away from the rest of Napa.

The new Single Plot Wines have catched his attention, especially San Lazaro, a plot of 1.62 hectares planted in 1956, which has scored 96 points and has been described as “a serious vineyard that is going to be high up in the Artadi hierarchy, with the finesse provided by the sandy soils, keeping good freshness in a warmer vintage. In short, San Lázaro is phenomenal, my favourite among the new labels and third in the hierarchy after Viña El Pisón (99 points), and ARTADI El Carretil (97 points). And let's see if it doesn't challenge El Carretil with its gobsmacking balance after all...”
