This fantastic Chardonnay from the famous film director Francis Ford Coppola is THE wine from California that you simply must taste.
It has a very seductive style with aromas of vanilla, apple, pear, toast, and butter. In the film world, a Director’s Cut is the creative version of a story as interpreted by the director. This wine represents this same principle for the wines from Sonoma County, California. A characteristic wine with a full, powerful flavor, fresh acidity, and exceptional length!
The wine consists mainly of Chardonnay (99%). These grapes grow in the most beautiful fields of the Russian River Valley. This area is located just above Sonoma County, which is known for the amazing quality of Chardonnay. The many hours of sunshine ensure a beautiful exotic ripeness in the grapes. Thanks to the coolness of the ocean, the grapes can ripen quietly, which gives a nice subtle freshness with balanced acidity. After harvest and fermentation, the wine undergoes wood aging for 9 months in French barriques, of which 35% consists of new wood. The beautiful fruit and subtle wood tones together form a great white wine; Burgundian and broad in character, deep and intense.
In the glass, this Chardonnay is deep straw-yellow in color. A powerful and broad aroma bursts from the glass with delicious vanilla, toast, ripe apple, and pear, with a fresh edge of citrus fruit. The taste is full and powerful, with a lovely buttery note. Vanilla and toast return on the palate with a hint of honey and fresh acidity. An exceptional length with a light toasty bitterness in the finish. The best serving temperature for this wine is between 12 and 16. The warmth opens up the wine and ensures it is beautifully balanced.
Serve the wine with white fish such as monkfish, or with scallops. This wine also comes into its own beautifully with lobster or a piece of chicken or turkey.
