Francis Coppola Diamond Collection Claret Cabernet Sauvignon (750Ml)

Diamond Collection Claret is the red that put the Francis Ford Coppola Winery on many dinner tables. The winery calls it the crown jewel of its Diamond Collection. It is a Cabernet Sauvignon-led blend made in a Bordeaux style. You will spot it easily by the gold netting wrapped around the bottle.

The name comes from "claret," the old British word for red Bordeaux. Like those wines, it mixes Cabernet with other grapes for balance. The fruit comes from vineyards all across California. Using many sites gives the winemakers more flavors to blend with. Portions of the wine then age for up to 12 months in French and American oak.

Swirl your glass and you will find blueberry, clove and a touch of vanilla. The palate is dark and generous. Black plum, black pepper and cocoa fill your mouth. Firm tannins give it shape, and the body is full. The finish is long, so each sip stays with you.

Critics like the value as much as the taste. Wine Enthusiast gave the 2022 vintage 93 points and named it a Best Buy. Earlier vintages have also scored in the low 90s. It is a lot of wine for the price.

Open it about 20 minutes before dinner to let it breathe. The winery suggests rack of lamb or a porcini mushroom risotto. Grilled steak and aged cheeses work well too. This is a great pick if you want a bold California red for a weeknight. It also makes an easy host gift. Explore more of our crafted wines to build a mixed case.
