Tasting: Villa da Filicaja Chianti Superiore

Villa da Filicaja Chianti Superiore
Chianti, Italy
2009
$12.95
Review provided by The Vintage Cellar: Chianti Superiore DOCG "Conte Andrea" is the best product of first-choice Sangiovese grapes from our best vineyards. It rests for twelve months in barrels of white oak (Quercus Alba), producing a very special high standard Chianti Superiore wine.
My Review: The aromas remind me of dark fruits such as cherries and especially plums. Upon tasting it, the plum flavor is what really popped out at me. I actually bought this wine after tasting it, since it goes best with my favorite kind of food: Italian! I'm really excited to try this wine with pasta or pizza.
