Felsina Berardenga – Rancia Chianti Classico Riserva 1997
In a blog that talks about Italian wine, could not miss one of the wines certainly more representative of Italy, Ladies and Gentlemen, His Majesty the Chianti Classico. And since we’re talking about one of the most world famous Italian wines, I tried to choose one that in my opinion is one of those able to better represent the essence of Chianti Classico. This wine is made from a holding Felsina, which is certainly a guarantee of consistent quality over time. On the blog had already spoken of Fontalloro even produced by this company. Here we are faced with a deep ruby colored wine almost impenetrable, with a nail lightly with garnet. The nose recalls red fruit and a hint of underbrush. The palate is soft and persuasive, able to embrace the mouth with an incredible intensity. The persistence is long but the tannins are soft as velvet. The spicy flavor gives a nice complexity. I must admit that he had found a vintage like this,1997, was a fortune. I don’t know the exact cost was a gift from a friend. Should cost around € 40 in Italy. It’s worth all
