DESCRIPTION
The Francis Coppola Diamond Collection Pinot Noir is an accessible and flavourful style, true to the spirit of Californian wine. Crafted by the Francis Ford Coppola Winery, it places the emphasis firmly on pleasure and fruit clarity.
On the nose, notes of warm pastry, plum and blueberry. On the palate, the texture is supple, the tannins well-integrated, and the whole remains balanced with a fluid, easy-drinking quality.
The grapes are harvested in the early hours of the morning to preserve their freshness, then vinified with a cold soak and full malolactic fermentation. A few months in oak barrels add structure without masking the fruit. A wine that is simply easy to love — perfect with roast poultry or everyday dishes.
REGION
California
United States
The Sonoma Valley is an American wine region often seen as the cradle of Californian winemaking. The valley is the driest part of Sonoma County thanks to the shelter of the mountains. The region is regarded as the source of the finest Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in Northern California, which benefit from the warm, sunny climate.
