Aged 18 months in a combination of French and American oak barrels, with a further 6 months of bottle aging, the 2020 Francis Coppola Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon boasts enticing and decadent aromas of blackberry, clove, and nutmeg. The palate brings together a perfectly balanced assortment of ripe dark fruit, cassis, and a hint of birch beer. Round tannins and a gentle sweetness usher in a rich, lengthy finish.
The connection between a vine and the soil it’s planted in creates the essence of a wine. Francis Coppola Reserve wines are vineyard-specific creations produced in limited quantities. Our winemaking team hand-selects the best lots of fruit from each vintage that capture the unique qualities of these prestigious vineyards. From these selections, we craft small-batch wines which are reserved exclusively for our winery guests, Wine Family members, and those who shop with us online.
