Natalie's Score: 90/100

From the Tuscany wine region, Ridolfi 2016 Brunello Di Montalcino is a fragrant Sangiovese with pink florals, underbrush, menthol and sweet dried tobacco aromas, and is vibrant with bright red berry, cherry, anise and briny mineral notes lingering and elegant on the palate. Tannins are pleasantly chewy. Good now, better in 2023. Drink or hold.

Brunello di Montalcino food pairings: rustic stews, meat lover's pizza, hard cheeses, grilled game sausages.

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.
