2022 Foradori Sgarzon Teroldego, Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT

There’s so much purity and freshness to the red fruit, with citrus peel, white pepper and attractive crushed stone minerality. It’s medium-bodied, bright and so expressive. Juicy, tense and very long. From organically and biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. 96 points James Suckling

A drop-dead gorgeous display of dusty violet and lavender tones gives way to wild blueberries and shavings of pine as the 2022 Teroldego Sgarzon blossoms in the glass. This is texturally deep, with silken waves of ripe red and blue fruits flowing across a juicy acidity stream. Crunchy mineral tones add lovely depth and hints of blood orange as the 2022 tapers off with tremendous length. A staining of tart blackberry and gently grippy tannins resonate on. In 2022, the Sgarzon has it all: depth, complexity, energy, power and structure. I love it. 95 Points Vinous

This rich, lively red is fragrant with floral and herb notes, with a zesty cracked peppercorn edge to the flavors of steeped raspberry, green plum, peach skin and heather. Plush tannins are sculpted and well-meshed, while savory accents of forest floor, iron and fresh earth drive the racy finish. Drink now through 2032. 850 cases made, 110 cases imported. 92 points Wine Spectator

Foradori is a benchmark estate in Trentino, best known for redefining the potential of the native grape Teroldego. Under the leadership of Elisabetta Foradori, who took over the family winery in the 1980s, Foradori shifted away from high-yield, industrial farming toward massale selection, biodiversity, and eventually biodynamic viticulture. The estate farms vineyards in the Campo Rotaliano plain, focusing on expressing site through low yields and healthy soils rather than winemaking intervention. In the cellar, fermentations are spontaneous, extraction is gentle, and vessels such as cement and large neutral oak are favored to preserve purity and structure. Foradori’s wines are widely regarded as some of the most transparent and age-worthy expressions of Teroldego, combining Alpine freshness with depth and restraint.
