From the vintage reports of the Consorzio Tutela Vini Valpolicella
A changeable year that ended well: a dry September gave healthy grapes.
A changeable season with late flowering and a dry September that gave healthy grapes.
March was very dry; April and May brought about 210 mm, close to normal, and June almost none. July to September had about 200 mm, some 50 mm below the average. Flowering came about ten days late and veraison about nine days late. Downy mildew needed precise work in May and June, and powdery mildew caused modest damage in a few sensitive spots. Dry weather in September kept botrytis away, and picking began around 15 September.
Valpolicella Doc Superiore by Comaroto Dal Forno Bros
Valpolicella Superiore 2021 by Comaroto is a clear expression of a contemporary vision rooted in one of the most respected families of Valpolicella. Built on the Dal Forno approach, this wine applies the same level of rigor, precision, and grape selection typically reserved for Amarone, resulting in a Valpolicella of uncommon depth and definition.
The blend is classic yet structured: 70% Corvina and Corvinone, 20% Rondinella, with small additions of Croatina and Oseleta. What truly defines this wine is its production method, combining 70% fresh grapes with 30% dried grapes. This approach creates a balance that feels natural and complete, where concentration never outweighs freshness.
Grapes come from the hills of Illasi, where limestone, silt, and clay soils contribute to both structure and lift. After careful manual selection, part of the fruit is vinified immediately, while the remaining grapes are dried for around 60 days. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at controlled temperature, followed by an extended aging of 24 months in tonneaux and an additional 24 months in bottle.
In the glass, the wine shows layered aromas of black cherry and plum, with notes of mocha coffee, violet, white pepper, and a subtle mineral edge. On the palate, it is harmonious and precise, with a combination of richness and energy that keeps it highly drinkable despite its structure.
This is a Valpolicella Superiore that moves beyond the traditional profile, offering both depth and freshness in equal measure. It pairs naturally with rich pasta dishes, red meats, and classic Italian recipes, but remains versatile thanks to its balance and clarity.

Comaroto Winery – Val d’Illasi, Verona
Comaroto is a young winery with deep family roots in the Val d’Illasi, one of the most important areas for Amarone production in the eastern side of Valpolicella.
The project belongs to the Dal Forno family and was born from a desire to create wines that respect local tradition while speaking with a clean, precise and modern style.
The name “Comaroto” comes from a family nickname linked to the figure of the comare, the midwife, a role held by Ernesto Dal Forno’s mother in the early 1900s. Over time, this name became part of the family identity and today represents a new chapter in their wine story.
In the vineyard, the focus is on careful manual work, strict grape selection and respect for the natural rhythm of the land. In the cellar, Comaroto follows the traditional methods of Valpolicella, including appassimento for Amarone, while keeping the wines precise, balanced and expressive.
Production is limited and quality driven, with particular attention to Amarone della Valpolicella and Valpolicella Superiore. The result is a range of wines that combine depth, structure and freshness, with a clear connection to the hills of Val d’Illasi.
Why we like Comaroto
- Family project rooted in the Dal Forno tradition
- Located in Val d’Illasi, in eastern Valpolicella
- Manual vineyard work and careful grape selection
- Focus on Amarone and Valpolicella Superiore
- Limited production with a precise and contemporary style
