Felsina : Berardenga Riserva 2013
A racy and well-structured Chianti Classico Riserva
Chianti Classico Riserva Berardenga 2013 from Felsina is a 100% Sangiovese produced in the Chianti Classico appellation. This cuvee is produced from the finest grapes of the vineyard, located between 320 - 420 meters of altitude. The terroir is diverse consisting of: quartz, Alberese limestone, alluvial sandstone and silt. Fermentation is carried out in stainless steel tanks for 14 - 16 days, while maturation is carried out in medium-sized Slavonian oak barrels, as well as French oak barrels (that have been used between two or three times) for a period of 12 - 16 months.
Chianti Classico Riserva Berardenga 2013 from Felsina has a beautifully intense red colour. Aromas of spices, floral notes, wild berries and minerality develop. This wine offers spices and crisp fruit in the mouth, displaying flexible and present tannins. Racy, with an impressive structure.
This tasting note would like to describe the current profile of the wine. The wine and the tasting note will change over time.
The 2013 Chianti Classico Riserva Berardenga is a little more evolved and aged than anticipated. The wine opens to dark fruit, plum, prune, dried cherry, savory spice and pipe tobacco. The apparent lack of primary fruit is surprising given the cooler climate in 2013. Yet again, the Castelnuovo Berardenga sub zone is always a few degrees warmer than the rest of the appellation.
