Vintage Report

The 2022 vintage for North Coast Pinot Noir received an excellent score of 93 points. The wines from this year are early maturing and very approachable.

Directors Coppola Cut Pinot Noir is a blend from various Sonoma County appellations. Director's Pinot Noir is made from grapes from the Carneros and Russian River Valleys. The Carneros grapes are earthy, robust, and slightly spicy. Those from the Russian River Valley are intense and rich, thanks to the even cooler microclimate. The grapes are harvested in the early morning, which is essential for preserving the Pinot Noir's fruit. Fermentation in large, open-topped wooden barrels, with the daily breaking of the "cap"—the layer of skins covering the wine—creates abundant color and a powerful flavor. The wine is then aged in special Burgundy barrels, which perfectly respect the subtle character of the Pinot Noir. The wood rounds the wine beautifully and imparts a beautiful elegance. It is aged for six months in barrels, 70% of which are French and 30% Hungarian oak. Twenty percent of the barrels are new.

BIG Directors Coppola Sonoma County Pinot Noir

Directors Coppola Sonoma County Pinot Noir, the new flagship wine from Francis Ford Coppola Winery. This highly refined Pinot Noir is a very delicate wine that also makes a great gastronomic offering. The color is bright cherry red, just as a good Pinot Noir should be. The nose of this magnificent red wine is powerful and slightly smoky. Delicate aromas of blackberry, cherry, tobacco, bay leaf, and subtle vanilla. The palate is wonderfully smooth, elegant, and soft. This, combined with a hint of spice and beautiful red fruit notes rounded out by vanilla and bay leaf, completes this wine. The long, sultry finish leaves you savoring this red wine for a long time to come.
