2020 | Francis Ford Coppola | 94th Awards Chardonnay

The 2020 vintage 94th Awards Chardonnay is rich and smooth with a creamy aroma of juicy pineapple and butterscotch. Notes of buttery caramel and ripe yellow fruit lend to a lingering finish.

Producer Information

The Francis Ford Coppola Winery is a Californian wine producer in Sonoma County. Founded by the eponymous filmmaker, famous for directing The Godfather trilogy and Apocalypse Now, the business was sold in 2021 to Delicato Family Wines. The winery had the highest production among the varied Coppola wine estates and produced the group's value brands. It was created decades later to separate the different brands the Neibaum-Coppola estate had cultivated. Wanting to distinguish the Rubicon label (which at the time accounted for only around 5000 of the estate's 268,000 annual case production), Neibaum-Coppola changed its name to Rubicon (now Inglenook Winery after another name change in 2011) and moved the production of its other wines, including the Diamond Collection, to Sonoma, establishing the Francis Ford Coppola Winery. The Francis Ford Coppola Winery was built as a fairly lavish attraction among Sonoma wineries. It has multiple tasting bars, tours, two restaurants, a swimming pool, a movie gallery, performing arts pavilion and a park with bocce courts. Much of the film memorabilia which had drawn large crowds to the Inglenook estate has been relocated to the Francis Ford Coppola Winery to maintain the focus of Inglenook as a fine wine producer. Just north of the Francis Ford Coppola Winery is the Francis Ford Coppola Winery Too! of which was established to showcase the entire portfolio of wines from the Coppola Family holdings. This establishment is the home of the Virginia Dare label. In the 2021 sale, Coppola retained Inglenook winery and vineyard (where Francis and his wife Eleanor live) and Domaine de Broglie in Oregon.
