Akarua, Rua Pinot Noir other_regions_italyDeep ruby purple colored, the 2010 Rua Pinot Noir gives aromas of ripe black cherries and mulberries with nuances of powdered cinnamon, mace and chocolate. Medium bodied and with a good amount of ripe berry flavors, it has crisp acidity and a medium level of velvety tannins, finishing long. Drink it now through 2014. Akarua does not currently have a USA importer.

There is excellent richness to the full-bodied

An elegant-styled Pomerol

complex and vibrant flavors that culminate in an energetic

Perfumed aromas of poached pear

yet those components are wonderfully judged

Tasted from magnum

floral and sandalwood scents

The wine sings with the characteristics of this vintage that will be remembered for the sunshine

As is almost always the case

Gets better and better

You’ll recognize tones of jammy fruit

especially for near and medium-term drinking
