What it tastes like

Ripe blueberry and dark berry fruit wrapped in caramel and sweet oak, with violet, clove and a twist of black pepper on the finish. It is dry, medium-bodied and smooth, with tannins that show grip without drying you out.

You’ll like this if…

You like California red blends such as Apothic, Menage a Trois or 19 Crimes, or you reach for a soft, fruit-forward Cabernet Sauvignon and want a little more spice and plushness.

Why buy it

At $18.99 this is a familiar, reliable California red that holds up on the dinner table and pleases a mixed group. The Cabernet and Petit Verdot give it structure, the Petite Sirah gives it color and depth, and the oak aging rounds off the edges.

Best for

Grilled and roasted meats, tomato-sauce pasta, burgers and barbecue, and any gathering where you need a crowd-pleasing red.

Style

Dry, medium-bodied, ripe and smooth, with moderate oak and a peppery, spicy finish.

Drinks like

Other California red blends and softer New World Cabernet Sauvignon; also a reasonable step across from Australian Shiraz blends if you enjoy dark fruit with spice.

Experience level

Beginner-friendly and easy to enjoy without any fuss, while still offering enough spice and structure for regular red drinkers.

About the winery · Francis Ford Coppola Winery ›

Francis Ford Coppola Winery sits at 300 Via Archimedes in Geyserville, in the heart of Sonoma County's Alexander Valley, and is open to visitors. Its wines are organized into tiers that run from the widely available Diamond Collection up through Director's Cut, Francis Coppola Reserve, Archimedes, Eleanor and Pitagora. The Diamond Collection is presented by the winery as a celebration of perseverance and a tribute to anyone who has overcome adversity to reach their ambitions. The wines in the collection are drawn from vineyards across California and blended for approachability rather than for one single site. The Diamond Red Blend is the collection's free-form bottling, assembled by taste from whichever lots show best in a given year.
