(from a 1 ha holding that is comprised of two large parcels that sit just above those of Domaine de Vogüé)

cedar and leather aromas come to the forefront along with whiffs of underbrush and blue flower

Good stuff though patience is once again suggested

Akarua, Rua Pinot Noir other_regions orchard fruitDeep 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.
