"Bold!"
Coppola's Diamond Collection Santa Barbara Pinot Noir 2020 presents a nose of rich black (cherry) and red (red currant) fruit aromas with hints of toasted almonds and dried flowers. Bold, this masculine-structured cuvée offers gourmet aromas of spiced apple pie on the palate, with notes of very fine fruit paste and a few woody touches, for a spectacular finish. This pretty red will be the perfect companion for barbecues and other springtime festivities... Not to be missed!
