Oscars wine: What will the stars be drinking?

Oscars wine: What will the stars be drinking?

February 17, 2017 By Rhino Wino Leave a Comment

An extension of Coppola’s Director’s Cut collection, the two Cinema Premiere 89th Edition wines, a 2013 red blend and a 2015 Russian River Valley Chardonnay, will be poured at the Academy Awards and the Governors Ball post-show party. Coppola, a 14-time Oscar nominee and six-time winner, said he had created the wines as ‘an expression of gratitude’ for his decades-long relationship with the Academy.

Key Takeaways:

  • ‘We were one of the earliest of the film people to get into the wine business; we have the most established, broad-based wine business of any film celebrity and, as a family, I imagine we have won as many nominations and wins as any.
  • Coppola, a 14-time Oscar nominee and six-time winner, said he had created the wines as ‘an expression of gratitude’ for his decades-long relationship with the Academy.
  • ‘What seems logical to me is that if anyone’s going to provide wine to the Academy, it ought to be the Coppola family,’ Coppola said.

“As well as the Chardonnay and the red wine – a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Merlot and Petite Sirah from the Dry Creek and Alexander Valleys – Coppola’s Director’s Cut Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and 2013 Archimedes will also be poured on the night.”
