Francis Coppola Diamond Collection Black Label Claret 2021 / 2022

Francis Coppola Diamond Collection Black Label Claret is the crown jewel and most popular wine of the entire Diamond Collection, crafted to honor the classic Bordeaux style with a distinct California flair. Adorned in its signature gold-netted bottle, this sophisticated red blend opens with an expressive and alluring bouquet of ripe blackberries, dark plums, and cassis, seamlessly layered with rich undertones of toasted oak, vanilla bean, and a hint of clove spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied, smooth, and voluptuous. A juicy core of black cherry and dark chocolate flavors is beautifully supported by supple, fine-grained tannins and a balanced acidity, leading into a long, velvety finish that delivers excellent structure and everyday approachability.

Food Pairing: Grilled New York strip steak, slow-cooked beef brisket, wood-fired gourmet burgers, roasted leg of lamb, or hearty meat-lovers pizza.
