In a fantastic place right now. All the elements of classic RRV with bright cherries, cola, light frame, and balanced acidity & alcohol levels. We tend to drink our RRV bottles early while the SoCo Pinots age. I think this version of the Balletto has a long life ahead of it as it drinks much younger than its 6 years in bottle would suggest. Fresh and lovely.

Solid Pinot that delivers in taste and structure again and again. Can be consumed early and also ages well. Hard to beat for the money.
