Coppola Merlot

Click image for a larger view.

Coppola Diamond Merlot is elegant and balanced, yet bursting with extravagant plum and blackberry flavors framed with rich, toasty oak shadings, and possessing a clean finish....all for ten to fifteen dollars a bottle.


And for those who are interested: Yes. It is that Coppola, famed Director of such movies as the Conversation, the Godfather, and Apocalypse Now. And as it turns out, he's also an avid wine-lover and connoisseur.


No one ever accused Mr. Coppola of thinking small, and the flavors of his eponymous wine family are a testament to that, if not their prices.
