Winemaker Notes
The 2012 Eleanor (Named after Francis Ford Coppola's Wife) delivers a velvety palate of rich, fragrant fruit that’s supported by firm but integrated tannins and dramatic spice notes. Profusely aromatic, the complex bouquet includes a mélange of jammy berries, anise, pepper and smoky oak followed by dark, juicy flavors of black cherries and plums. Less earthy than last year’s wine, there are still notable nuances of leather and minerals along with a floral note that develops on long sultry finish. For immediate enjoyment decant several hours before serving, or cellar 3-5 years to experience this wine at its fullest.
The floral Art Deco design on the label honors Eleanor’s love of textiles. She has traveled the world in pursuit of her passion for unique fabrics. This label reflects her special love for patterns that were prevalent during the Art Deco period.
