The winemakers at Coppola drew inspiration from the French wine region of Bordeaux. This Claret is a blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot (15%), Merlot (3%), and Cabernet Franc (3%). The grapes are sourced from all over California, namely Napa Valley, Sonoma County, and El Dorado. Coppola is in a privileged position: they own superb vineyards throughout California. This allows Coppola to select only the finest grapes for the Francis Ford Coppola Claret. A true California sensation, a tribute to French wine.
This Francis Ford Coppola Claret has been aged for 15 months in French oak. A true perfection. The four typical French grape varieties blend beautifully. The aroma is grand and captivating. We detect hints of black fruit like cherry and blackberry, vanilla, light spices, and a touch of anise. A second sniff reveals more mature notes in the wine, such as oak, tobacco, and dark chocolate. The taste of Coppola Claret is unforgettable. This Californian gem boasts nuances of abundant black fruit like cherry, vanilla, and a hint of chocolate on the palate. A full, thick, stunning wine from this phenomenal winery. A Californian wine you must try!
