Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The biodynamic and organic 2021 Teroldego Foradori shows ripe blackberry fruit, rich concentration and lingering aromas of sweet tobacco, nutmeg and exotic spice. Despite those savory tones, this wine remains brilliant and fresh throughout. The mid-weight style makes it a perfect companion to simple pork or lamb dishes.

Description

Foradori Teroldego is the red wine with IGT Vigneti delle Dolomiti appellation in the Trentino region. This wine is the core of the Foradori winery, being the first bottle produced by Elisabetta's parents in 1960 and, to this day, its most significant production. It is made exclusively from Teroldego grapes, sourced from 9 hectares of the winery's own vineyards, planted between 1956 and 2005 on the sunny and well-drained Camp Rotaliano plateau, right around the winery. The soils of this region are a combination of alluvial sand and gravel, with dolomitic limestone present. Depending on the age of the vines, they can be traditionally trained in pergola or guyot. The agriculture is certified biodynamic.

Winemaking

The grapes are harvested by hand and each plot is vinified separately. Depending on the vintage, the bunches are partially destemmed or left intact. The uncrushed grapes and whole bunches are placed in cement tanks, where they ferment spontaneously with indigenous, sulphur-free yeasts. The wine is aged for about a year in 2,000 and 4,000 litre barrels and bottled without fining or filtering, adding a small dose of sulphur.

Taste

Foradori Teroldego is a wine that delights many for its complexity and balance. It has a distinctive note of dried flowers, damp earth and moss, which intertwine harmoniously with aromas of cherries, pomegranates and liquorice. In the background, hints of leather can be perceived along with ripe plums. On tasting, it surprises with high acidity and grippy tannins, still young, but perfectly paired with a truffled funghi porcini pizza. Its earthy flavour is complemented by ripe blackberries and strawberries, and a spicy touch of white pepper.
