After serving drinks at this year's Sundance Film Festival in Park City, the winery will now serve their two limited-edition wines at the 90th Oscars and The Governors Ball. The "Oscars 90th Edition" rich 2016 Chardonnay and classic earthy 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon have been featured in the winery's award-winning Director's cut wine collection.
As a 14 time nominee and 6 time winner in the Academy, Francis Ford Coppola customized these two wine bottles just for this year's celebrations.
"The Academy Awards is a ceremony that honors daring, fearless, innovative storytelling, and in that tradition, we have developed two exquisite Director's Cut wines that reflect innovative excellence," says Corey Beck, Francis Ford Coppola Winery's CEO.
Originated in Sonoma County the winery strives for consumers to enjoy all the best things in life. In this case, it's taking home the golden statue!
The stars will have plenty to celebrate and sip throughout the night especially the cast of The Shape of Water with a whopping 13 nominations! Cheers with the stars and host Jimmy Kimmel on March 4.
