Even on an ugly rainy day, we enjoyed it very much. The ONLY winery where I really liked each of the wines I tasted...all 10! And the movie memoriablilia was just plain fun. New-found respect for FFC.
Two levels of wine tasting, both are good. Always fun to walk around, enjoy the view, see the pool, teepee and bocce ball court. Great wine bottle designs! Many cool things to shop.
The restaurant has an excellent menu, with lots of interesting choices. We know because we were able to read it 4 or 5 times before our server showed up. This is a slow paced restaurant.
Amazing place. U don't have to get a pool cabine to have a great time. Plenty of outdoor seating with great views. All the wines we tried were really good.
Start off at Rustic and finish off with a wine tasting. Starting off at Rustic allowed us to relax and have a great lunch and then finish with wonderful wine flights.
Beside taking a tour & tasting, make sure to see the Academy Award display in the winery, as well as movie memorabilia from Apocalypse Now and others. I love the smell of nebbiolo in the morning.
More than a winery, this is an experience. From the check in special on Foursquare for wine tasting to tours and a meal at Rustic! Get 10% off your wine purchase with a Visa Signature card, we did!
First winery I've ever been to. Very impressed!!!! Foursquare also gives u a special complementy wine testing for 2!! Seeing all the Coppolamemorabilia is a MUST!! Plus the have tours.
Their chicken mattone is crispy and juicy despite having most of the chicken fat squeezed out of the dish. For carb conscious folks, the dish comes with vegetables.
Enjoyed lunch with my sister and pretty sure mr. Beans' Mexican love child was my server. The ambiance is always amazing and like I said before, don't miss the pizzadonuts.
Get there early enough to enjoy the poolsidecafé (and the pool of course), as well as the galleries of filmartifacts. And finally, do not leave without a bottle of Coppola presents Shiraz! ;)
Very artsy, beautiful and tasteful. Sitting outside, going to the pool, or enjoy everyday wine flights or reservewine flights inside. They have a restaurant as well.
Spend a day poolside with the family and your own cabine (a touch of European luxury). Sip wines. Finish the day of pool and pinots with a sunset game of bocce.
Francis has been known to make unannounced visits in the restaurant and tasting room. Keep your eyes open. (Hey - who's that bearded guy floating in the pool?)
An exclusive three-course chef's tasting menu at Rustic Francis's Favorites® at Francis Ford Coppola Winery finds farm-to-table dishes paired with the most fitting of Coppolawines.
Heading to Alexander Valley? Visit Trione Winery for a complimentary tasting when you check in! We've got picnic grounds & are dog friendly! The wines good too!!
