Francis Ford Coppola Diamond Collection Black Label Claret Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

California, United StatesSweet black gummies and blackberry jam pervade this sweeter, ripe and full bodied claret from Coppola's Diamond Collection (replete with fine gold netting). Cabernet sauvignon, merlot, cabernet franc and petit verdot are taken from Napa, Sonoma and El Dorado for this simple red, one with cola, sweet tobacco and earthy notes, furry tannins and a good dose of wood. Packaging and name sells bottles, though there are much more pleasurable cabernets on our market for much less.Tasted: 29 March 2016Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
