"Winemaking and filmmaking are two great art forms that are very important in the development of California. They both start with raw ingredients—in the case of wine, the land and the grapes, and in the case of film, the script and the actors’ performances. The winemaker takes these raw materials and ferments and blends. He says yes to one batch, no to another. The director does the same thing: a series of yeses and nos, from casting and costuming to edits and sound mixes. In both cases you have to start with top notch raw materials—whether it’s the land or a script.” -Francis Ford Coppola  About the Wine: When the Francis Ford Coppola Winery opened its doors in 2006, the Coppola family was excited to give Director of Winemaking, Corey Beck, a Sonoma County native, the opportunity to make wines that reflected his own vision of the quintessential Sonoma wine. Director’s Cut became that endeavor— limited production, appellation-designate wines sourced from Sonoma’s diverse and distinctive microclimates. Beck’s team is highly selective about the fruit they source, acknowledging that grapes which consistently “perform” well make for superior wines. Over the past few years, Beck has had the chance to see which vineyards produce truly stand-out Cabernet and Zinfandel, the two primary varietals that make up Cinema, our Director’s Cut flagship wine. The Blend The 2007 vintage of Cinema represents several different sub-appellations of Sonoma. Our Cabernet Sauvignon is grown in Alexander Valley, our Zinfandel and Petite Sirah come from Dry Creek Valley and our Cabernet Franc hails from Knights Valley. Alexander Valley experiences a prolonged growing season due to extreme temperature differentials between day and night. The alluvial gravel soils associated with the appellation also contribute to the complex nature of Cabernet that is grown here. Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel, which adds to the wine’s lushness, comes from old vines that are dry-farmed and have low yields. We elected to add a little Cabernet Franc to the blend this vintage because the exceptional growing conditions resulted in extremely fragrant fruit redolent of flowers and raspberries. As a result of blending grapes from multiple appellations, the wine demonstrates a great deal of complexity, as well as our winemaker’s individual style and skill. Our Director’s Cur Cinema is dark and rich, with an exotic spice character and edge of earthiness. Vintage Profile The 2007 vintage experienced an unusually dry winter followed by a warm dry spring. Because there was very little rain, the crop size was severely diminished and the grape clusters had smaller than normal berries. This condition augurs high-quality fruit. In the summer months, there were no substantial heat spikes so the season progressed slowly, which allowed the grapes to ripen over a longer period of time. In fact, harvest didn’t take place until October because the good weather never forced us to pick. In the end, we achieved tremendously concentrated fruit with intense aromatics. The Cabernet, in particular, exhibits excellent tannin structure and ripe, juicy flavors. Winemaker Notes This is only our second vintage of Cinema, and we are delighted that it represents another spectacular vintage. This wine has tremendous depth due to the excellent phenolic development of the fruit. Although it is extremely expressive now, the concentration and solid tannin structure will allow it to mature nicely over time. Those who are fans of Super Tuscans will enjoy the spicy, full-bodied nature of this wine as well as the rich, dark berry fruit impressions, which are layered with flavors of raspberries, cherries, cloves and cigar box. Because this wine has already spent 18 months in barrel, it displays an elegant texture that makes it compatible with a wide variety of cuisines.

For this vintage, Pinot Noir from Dutton Ranch was the prominent stand out for our Reserve collection. The vineyard is located near the Pacific Ocean and experiences fog nearly every afternoon. Not only does this condition serve to lower ambient temperatures by 30-40 degrees in the evening, it works perfectly to slow down the ripening process so that grapes can accumulate flavor concentration by maturing over a longer period of time. This smooth, silky Pinot offers seductive AROMAS of rose petals and ripe red cherries along with generous FLAVORS of crushed raspberries, blackberries, and fragrant spices. Wonderful with seasoned pork tenderloin, roast beef with wild mushrooms, or fettuccine with Italian sausage and cream sauce.

About the Wine: Sam’s Vineyard Alexander Valley is comprised of varied terrain, from mountains that are exposed to full and abundant sunlight, to the valley floor in the south, which is cooler and highly influenced by maritime weather conditions. Alluvial soils run the length of the valley, and many vineyards are punctuated by sedimentary stones, which retain heat and transfer warmth to the vines even when the sun cannot. . . . <a href="http://store.franciscoppolawinery.com/Product706" title="Commemorative Plate Collection Gift Box"><img src="https://store.nexternal.com/ffcp/images/Plates_CollTHU.jpg" align="left" alt="Commemorative Plate Collection Gift Box" name="Commemorative Plate Collection Gift Box" border="0" hspace="10" /></a> <a href="http://store.franciscoppolawinery.com/Product706" title="Commemorative Plate Collection Gift Box">Commemorative Plate Collection Gift Box</a> -- Please note that this item is exclusive to our Wine Club members.
