Kosher Blood (red pulp) Orange Juice at Trader Joe's

I was at Trader Joe's and I saw a new product in their bottled juice shelves. It was blood orange juice imported from Italy and it appears to be under rabbinical supervision. I didn't recognize the hechser (kosher endorsement). Next to the hechser, it said kosher for passover.

      According to http://www.dreamfoods.com/faqs.htm, which seems to be the manufacturer, the juice is "certified by the Chief Rabbi of Trieste in Italy". That would be Rabbi Umberto Piperno, whose symbol can be seen at http://www.kashrut.com/agencies/#__IT . If you can read Italian, you can learn more about him at http://www.triestebraica.it/rabbino.htm .
