Francis Coppola Diamond Collection Zinfandel
Red wine | California
The Coppola version of this Zinfandel is a shining example of why this grape variety - better known to us as Primitivo - has become a must-have in California. This is a red wine with bewitching, rich, spicy aromas of blackberry and cherry liqueur, underlined by hints of vanilla, pepper and nutmeg. On the palate, it's a wine of pure pleasure that is wonderfully concentrated, full-bodied and generous, with nothing half-hearted about it!

A beautiful intense purple.
With magnificent scents of blackberry and cherry liqueur supported by some hints of pepper and nutmeg.
Wonderfully concentrated with a beautiful palette of aromas such as raspberry and prune and hints of toasted oak.
A blend with particular characteristics due to the terroirs from which it draws its strength. On the one hand there's the Paso Robles terroir, in the south, where the dry and hot climate gives the wine a beautiful concentration, on the other hand there's that of the Sonoma Valley where the clay soils give the wine a marked and assertive character.
Traditional, blend made up of a small percentage of Petite Sirah, which intensifies the structure and tannins. Aging for 12 months in French oak barrels.
