The Coppola Claret was a nice red blend that we enjoyed with dinner last night. I grilled some steaks and mushrooms and the wine really complemented the steaks. It had nice fruit, mostly red and black fruits, with a little spice. Krista thought the mid-palate was a bit watery but still liked the wine. I thought it was pretty well-balanced. It was smooth and easy to drink.
For a few dollars less, I think we both prefer the Coppola Presents Rosso a little bit more. Even so, this was a nice wine at a good price.
