Inglenook RC Reserve Syrah Napa Valley Rutherford 2014
Francis Ford Coppola purchased this historic estate back in 1975, and his been working ever since to return Napa's preeminent winery to its former glory. While it has operated under many names since its purchase (Niebaum-Coppola, Rubicon Estate), Francis and his wife Eleanor finally acquired the iconic Inglenook trademark in 2011, allowing the wines to finally be labeled with the historical name. Winemaker's notes: "Roman Coppola, a Syrah aficionado fond of both the Australian heavyweights as well as the more pedigreed Syrah-based wines from the Northern Rhône, worked with the Inglenook winemaking team to create an estate Syrah that combined the nuance and texture of ‘old world’ Syrah with the powerful fruit of ‘new world’ Syrah. Although Inglenook is primarily planted to Cabernet, Rutherford’s temperate climate, alluvial soils and eastern exposure where our Syrah vines are planted offer envious conditions for producing a rich, opulent wine."
