The Valpolicella Blend is based on three indigenous red-wine grape varieties grown in the Veneto region in Italy's northeast. Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella are the trio primarily involved in the Valpolicella DOC, although it could easily be argued that the production method is equally as important – the grape berries are semi-dried to make Amarone, possibly their most famous incarnation.

Dal Forno Romano is a producer of fragrant, flavourful Amarone in Valpolicella, it is widely regarded as one of Veneto's finest wineries. The winery was founded in 1983 by Romano Dal Forno himself. There are only 8 hectares (20 acres) of low-yielding vineyards on gritty clay soils planted in Corvina, Rondinella, Croatina and Ocereta.
The winery was built in 1990 in his 19th century farmhouse style and has a vaulted brick cellar. Dal Forno makes three of his wines, Valpolicella Superiore, Amarone, Vigna Seré. Both are dominated by Corvina, with smaller proportions of Rondinella, Croatina and Ocelleta.
