Francis Ford Coppola Diamond Claret 2000
Bordeaux Red Blends
from North Coast, California
winemaker's notes:
As a traditional Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, the 2000 Francis Coppola Diamond Series Black Label Claret is a wine of defined personality that speaks more to a style of wine than an individual varietal. This vintage has a deep, dark and luxurious blue-purple color. The Claret has expressive aromatics of toasty vanilla with essences of sweet blackberries and spicy black pepper, followed by rich flavors of blueberry, clove and mint. The wine concludes with a supple yet structured finish that is drinkable now or may be cellared for the next three to five years. Serve the 2000 Black Label Claret with roasted meats, hearty stews, and pungent cheeses.

This is an excellent cab. Just tried it again a year later. Paired perfect with fajitas, smoked and grilled. Decant it for an hour or more for some burst in all 3 areas. :)

The first Francis Coppola wine that I tried was the 1999 Blue Label Merlot. I enjoyed it which prompted me to try this one. It is very nice as well and sure to please.

Had the pleasure of enjoying this wine at Nepenthe in Big Sur and it was wonderful. I recommend giving this one a try, you won't be disappointed.
