Natalie's Score: 90/100

Produced from the Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and about 10% of other local variety grapes, a medium-bodied, mouth-watering Valpolicella smooth with dark cherry, sage, rosemary, and thyme herbs, mocha and pepper spice flavours on the palate. Lots to enjoy here. Pair with a meat-lover`s pizza. Tannins are firm. The wine was matured in Slavonian oak.

Valpolicella Superiore food pairings: hamburger, hearty soups, pasta, Mediterranean cuisine.

Reviews and Ratings

Capitel Nicalo 2018 is a mouth-watering Valpolicella Superiore from the Veneto wine region. So savoury on the nose with sage, rosemary, and thyme to accompany the dark cherry, mocha and anise, cinnamon flavours on the palate. Great acidity for food. Pair with a rosemary and garlic studded leg of lamb. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
