Winemaker Notes
The 1997 vintage is a classic Zinfandel from the Niebaum-Coppola Estate. The fruit ripened late in the harvest season making it uniform with bright and dynamic aromas. The 1997 Pennino is one of the most charming and engaging wines that this property has ever made. Aromas are dominated by inviting ripe, red, spicy Zinfandel fruit and toasty vanilla spice from new American oak barrels. The palette is soft and concentrated with flavors of briary black fruit, nutmeg and allspice. The wine has an incredibly supple texture that upholds the core of fruit flavors through its lengthy and persistent finish.

In 1879, Finnish explorer and adventurer Gustave Niebaum searched the Napa Valley with the goal of establishing a wine estate to rival the finest chateau of France. For decades his wines won acclaim and remain some of the most admired in American wine history's classic period. By the mid-1960's, his property was divided, and estate-wine production ceased.
A decade later, Francis Ford Coppola purchased 1,500 acres of this historic property and revived Captain Niebaum's fine winemaking tradition. In 1995, Niebaum-Coppola acquired the remainder of the property and restored the Inglenook Estate to its original dimensions.
