Recommended – 2010 Felsina Berardenga Chianti Classico

Admittedly, I carried out a little research beforehand and discovered that 2010 was an excellent year for Chianti Classico Italian red wines and, after having sampled a bottle, I’d say that I certainly agree.

I tried a 2010 Felsina Berardenga Chianti Classico this evening and it really was a lovely Italian red. I paid a around €12 or so for a bottle of this fine Chianti Classico in my local wine shop here in Milan. Of the three bottles of 2010 Chianti Classico I considered, this was the mid-priced bottle and was the one the owner himself recommended.

I’d love David Brenner, Italy Chronicles’ resident wine taster, to sample this wine too. His would amount to a third opinion because I consumed this Chianti Classico with a wine loving friend of mine who was as impressed as I was.

Stop reading, start speaking

Stop translating in your head and start speaking Italian for real with the only audio course that prompt you to speak.

Very highly recommended!

If, of course, you can find a 2010 Felsina Berardenga Chianti Classico wherever you find yourself in the world, then my advice would be to snap it up and try it – preferably in the company of a good friend. If you like it, then go, or rather, sprint back and order a few crates – before word gets around. Just in case your local wine supplier should run dry, 2005 and 2006 were also excellent years for Chianti Classico.

Cheers!

Update: Via a Twitter contact of mine, I have learned, alas, that this wine costs a pretty penny in the UK – around £33 (ex-tax) a bottle. If, however, you visit Milan, you can get it for less than half the UK price and I can tell you where to find it too.
