Francis Ford Coppola Rosso (California, 2008)

Category: BlendMike @ 2:07 pm
This wine is a blend of Zinfandel, Syrah and Cabernet.  We picked it up and had it with some fantastic pulled pork sandwiches and coleslaw from the Aarti Party recipe.  Overall it was a winning combination.
$9 from Fry’s
Four Trophies
  • At first open, the smells are sweet and a bit jammy.
  • Grassy, alfalfa summertime smells follow a bit later.
  • Tastes of vanilla, lavendar and honey with peach at the end.
  • Very smooth and enjoyable – improving over time with decanting.
  • Great all around wine for the price… easy drinking and relaxing… like spending a lazy summer afternoon lounging around in a hammock… sure you didn’t accomplish anything productive, but you felt so good doing it.

    This wine was a little thin compared to the other Coppola wines I’ve had. It got better after an hour or so but not so much.
