About this product

RUA Pinot Noir is made in a juicy, fruit forward style, soft on the tannins with bright acidity. This makes it an easy match for a large range of flavours and dishes from salami and soft goat's cheese to woodfired pizza to a creamy chicken Marsala. We especially love how well RUA Pinot Noir accompanies chilli and roasted Asian flavours of soy and sesame – a perfect match to pork and mushroom dumplings!

Don't think you'll find a better pinot noir at this price point. Light and refreshing with just enough depth to it. Highly recommend.

Eventhough we live in a part of Victoria known for its pinots, we thought we'd try this. We were not disappointed!!! Lovely berry characteristics that are not overpowering like some, smooth without that tannic grip common to a lot of pinot'

The 'Rua' is a very satisfying wine not to mention the value. Good nose, good colour and best of all, great flavour.
