Riserva RdF

By Coppo, Asti, Piemonte, Italy

Coppo Riserva RdF

RdF, the highest interpretation of the Barbera variety by Coppo since 1998.

Tasting notes

Color: intense ruby red. Nose: deep and penetrating with ripe red fruit hints of plum and berries enveloped in an ethereal bouquet. Taste: warm, enveloping and full bodied, extremely long-lasting persistence, in great harmony with the perfume.

Pairs well with

Wild game meat, meat sauce ravioli, cardoon flan with fonduta
