Francis Ford Coppola Winery - Diamond Collection Chardonnay 2017
California
White
Sold individually
Drink or Keep
With notes of roasted pineapple and exotic fruit, this 100% Chardonnay from South San Francisco is very flattering. A finely controlled woodiness lends structure to this white wine, which can be enjoyed as an aperitif or with exotic sweet-salty and spicy dishes. An ode to pleasure and indulgence!

Nice complexity despite a lack of finesse

rich, fat, borderline sweet wine. It could have been nice, but a poorly integrated bitterness spoils the pleasure.

Full-bodied Chardonnay, a little oily but very satisfying (taste/quality/price ratio) compared with Burgundies that cost at least twice as much!

It's an explosion of everything! A very surprising wine, very aromatic on the nose and palate, with good length...

Drunk with cheese! Great length, round and fat on the palate.

Well made but not enthusiastic... I found its yellow fruit nose a little odd and its taste peculiar. For the aperitif.
