Francis Ford Coppola, Diamond Collection, Pinot Noir 2023
DESCRIPTION
Francis Ford Coppola Diamond Collection Pinot Noir 2023 comes from select vineyards across California. Aged 4 months in French oak barrels, pH 3.78, total acidity 5.2 g/L. Morning harvesting preserves the aromatic integrity of the fruit. The style favours silky texture and purity of red fruit. Founded by legendary filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola, the estate was born from his love of wine and family memories. In 1974, Coppola acquired a historic property in Rutherford, Napa Valley, with the proceeds from The Godfather. In 2006, he opened a second winery in Geyserville in the Sonoma region. With iconic ranges such as the Diamond Collection, Coppola combines tradition, quality and accessibility, embodying the elegance of Californian wine.
On the nose, an expressive nose of raspberry and redcurrant, lifted by notes of vanilla and soft spices. On the palate, supple and satiny, marked by black cherry, ripe raspberry and a subtle nutmeg touch on the finish. It pairs with pork fillet mignon or roasted chicken supreme. Ageing potential of 5 years.

La Sonoma Valley est une région viticole américaine souvent reconnue comme le berceau de la viticulture californienne. La vallée est la partie ayant le climat le plus sec de tout le comté de Sonoma grâce à l'abri qu'apportent les montagnes. La région est considérée comme la source des meilleurs vins de Pinot Noir et de Chardonnay de la Californie du Nord qui profitent du climat chaud et ensoleillé.
Recommandé pour vous:
The 2023 is fresher and more precise than previous vintages less jammy, more tightly focused. The raspberry and spice notes are still there, but with a welcome lightness. A Californian Pinot Noir that is a very pleasant surprise.
