Aromatic and flavor profile -
- Aromas: Intense, dark fruit (cherry, plum, blackcurrant), licorice, cocoa, tobacco, and earthy spices. Some reviewers also note floral and smoky notes.
- Palate: Plush and rich, with a complex layering of dark fruit and more savory notes like dark chocolate, spice, and tobacco. You may also detect hints of smoke, tar, or new leather, particularly with age.
- Structure: Velvety but firm tannins, bright acidity, and a high alcohol content (around 17%) that is well-integrated.
Finish-
- Length: A long, intense, and lingering finish.
- Flavors: The finish often features a combination of fruit and spice notes that evolve with air, sometimes including a creamy cherry fruit quality.
Vintage characteristics-
- 2008 vintage: Considered a cooler vintage, which resulted in a slightly more elegant style for Dal Forno, but still maintains the brand's characteristic power.
- Aging: While enjoyable now, the wine benefits from a lot of air. It is built for the long term, with a suggested drinking window that extends through 2033 and potentially beyond.
