FRANCIS COPPOLA ARCHIMEDES CAB SAUV 750 ml

Discover the ingenuity behind Francis Coppola Archimedes Cabernet Sauvignon, a California red wine that channels the brilliance of its namesake. Archimedes, the legendary ancient Greek thinker renowned as a physicist, astronomer, engineer, and inventor, once harnessed sunlight through massive mirrors to set enemy ships ablaze—a tale of pure genius. This spirit echoes in the Coppola family, where Francis Ford Coppola's grandfather, Augusto, honored him by naming his firstborn son Archimedes. That uncle shared the same passion for numbers and machinery, inspiring this exclusive Cabernet Sauvignon as a tribute to his remarkable legacy.

Available only in small batches, Francis Coppola Archimedes Cabernet Sauvignon draws from the finest selections of each vintage's Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. Its deep, intense profile delivers a rich, smooth mouthfeel balanced by firm tannins. Compared to the prior release, this edition leans toward warmer spice tones with reduced earthy undertones, unfolding layers of aroma that evoke black raspberry, cassis, hints of clove, gingerbread warmth, and subtle charred oak. On the palate, expect vibrant bursts of plum, boysenberry, and star anise, culminating in a mineral edge that lingers with elegant depth.

At 14.90% ABV and bottled in 750 ml, this United States Cabernet Sauvignon from California stands out for those seeking a sophisticated red with historical resonance and sensory intrigue. Priced at $93.10, it offers collectors and enthusiasts a rare chance to own a piece of family heritage bottled in liquid form. Imagine uncorking this dark beauty for a quiet evening or special gathering—its velvety richness and evolving notes promise to spark conversation, much like the innovative mind it celebrates. Elevate your wine collection with Francis Coppola Archimedes Cabernet Sauvignon, where timeless intellect meets modern indulgence.
