Natalie's Score: 91/100

Vallepicciola 2021 Chianti Classico is excellent value. Fragrant with bright red cherry, fresh blackberry, iron, savoury herbs and spicy flavours vibrant and fleshy on the palate, this classico is showing excellent poise and structure. If having tonight, decant it for one hour prior to pouring it with a meat-lover's pizza, or try it in 2026 when it will begin to show its best through 2038.

Chianti Classico food pairings: meat-lover's pizza, pork tenderloin, hard cheeses.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

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.

The Financial Times of London

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.
