Still nice ruby color. Bright fruity nose, with great structure in the mouth. Nice balance of fruit and acidity. Impactful finish.

Perfect pairing across the board. Worked just fine with duck, steak, chicken, and, yes, cioppino. Delicious.

Amazing fresh berries in nose
. Ethereal perfume too. Great representation of RR Pinot. It's why we love this grape.
