SPICY, PLUSH CALIFORNIAN ZINFANDEL!
FIVE STARS 93/100 | Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
The Francis Ford Coppola Winery is a Californian operation owned by the eponymous award-winning filmmaker himself, famous for directing The Godfather trilogy and Apocalypse Now. Coppola has been a household name for generations, and it's safe to say that Francis Ford Coppola Winery has gained icon status.
The wines from the Diamond Collection are carefully produced from grapes all across California with the aim to create wines with immense complexity. This respected, premium styled, richly weighted Zinfandel is a Californian classic - spicy and overflowing with lush dark plum characters. A splash of petite sirah was added to the blend to balance the ripe fruit characters with added structure. It's the real deal and comes very highly recommended.

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "Rich and plush, the wine shows dark fruit intensity, toasty oak, warm spice and milk chocolate aromas on the nose, followed by a generously expressed palate delivering excellent weight and opulent fruit flavours. Smooth and soothing with a delectable finish. At its best: now to 2030."
The winery writes "Spicy, jammy, and bold, Diamond Collection Zinfandel is rich with ripe red fruit flavors, bold tannins, and notes of spice. Oak styles were chosen to enhance the wine’s aromas, flavors, and texture."
