Francis Ford Coppola Returning Inglenook to Its Glory Days

May 4, 2012

One of Napa Valley's most famous and legendary wines, the 1941 Inglenook Cabernet, is a far cry from the bulk wines that carried the Inglenook name and sullied the iconic reputation beginning with the sale of the winery in 1964. But Francis Ford Coppola has made it his mission to restore the property and wines to their glory days. In a must-read article by Jon Bonné of the San Francisco Chronicle, the history of Inglenook is detailed from 1880 to the forthcoming release of the 2009 Inglenook Cask Cabernet.
