Another Delectable Coppola Production


The time of year is perfect to discover the delightful and wines of Francis Ford Coppola Winery. May we suggest:
Diamond Chardonnay: The classic California Chardonnay offers depth, richness, distinctive spice notes and a smooth, creamy texture. It pairs well with Fettuccine Alfredo, orange chicken, and pork tenderloin with peaches: an ideal white wine to make the transition from summer fruits to fall flavors. SRP: $16
Votre Santé Pinot Noir: A wine with light, elegant texture perfect for pairing with light meats and fall pasta dishes. Intriguing aromatics of incense, cinnamon and tea leaves are followed by bright, lively flavors of red cherries, raspberries, cranberries, earthy minerals and cloves: a feast of fall’s sweet spices. SRP: $14
Diamond Claret: A full-bodied and delicious red blend to welcome crisp weather and savory fall foods, such as roasted poultry and game, savory mushrooms and hearty squashes. SRP: $18
Also try the their new Diamond Red Blend, a very delicious balance of Zinfandel, Syrah, Petite Sirah, Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot.
Please always serve and drink responsibly.

Apothical


    

Here is a rich, luxurious wine that will  reward your senses with a velvety mouthfeel and smooth finish. Apothic Red 2008 California's Winemaker's Blend is a mix of spicy Zinfandel with smooth Merlot and lush, dark Syrah. There were lighter yields as a result of well below normal winter rainfall and an extended April frost that reduced quantities in many regions of California. But these conditions  were followed by an ideally mild summer and fall meaning the lighter yields and small berries resulted in exceptionally high quality of grapes of complex, concentrated flavors and aromas. Wine lover's will just enjoy the inspired taste of a truly delicious and thoughtful wine. 

 $14 for a 750-ml bottle
