COPPOLA SHIRAZ

My family has always made wine. To hear it from my father Carmine, these were not fancy wines, they were everyday wines, wines that were on the dinner table each night. Our Rosso & Bianco wines are made in the same spirit wines for everyday life. -Francis Coppola. I used to hear stories from my father, about how Grandpa Coppola made wine in the tenement in New York City during prohibition. The boys liked the grapes and they would lower their littlest brother - my Uncle Mikey - down a rope in a box to steal. But the old man discovered them - and they let go of the rope! And Uncle Mikey ended up in the grapes, and boy did he get a beating that might. This always seemed to me such a wonderful experience, a family making wine. Our Shiraz is made in the same spirit - a wine for everyday life. Discover Francis's favorite family recipes. www.FrancisCoppolaWinery.com. California Shiraz. Alc 13.5% by vol.
