He filed for a winery license in 1978 and, in 1979, the Coppola family wine business began under the Niebaum-Coppola name. He directed the sequel in 1974, and the following year he acquired the Niebaum Estate (part of the legendary Inglenook property) in the Napa Valley, where the family continues to make wine to this day. In 1972, Coppola directed “The Godfather,” which won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 1973. Between ‘The Godfather’ and ‘Apocalypse Now,’ Coppola made wine. While this is an impressive tally, he has produced more than double that number of wines, offering a lineup of almost 80 varieties. In his decades-long career, Francis Coppola has racked up 36 director’s credits.

The winery is repeatedly awarded top honors from prestigious wine industry competitions – receiving coveted Winery of the Year and Producer of the Year accolades multiple times – earning the reputation as one of the world’s most impressive, top-tier, premium wine producers. The Coppola winery differentiates itself from canned competitors through its uncompromised brand integrity and consistent signature flavor profiles portrayed in the can, which embraces the distinct award-winning, critically-acclaimed wines that consumers recognize. The bold move redefines the canned still wine category by bringing an elevated level of superior quality and authenticity to the segment. Known for being a trusted leader in the premium wine category, the canned category, and the alternative packaging and innovation category, it’s a natural evolution for Francis Ford Coppola Winery to expand the ever-growing Diamond Collection into cans. Over the years, the canned phenomenon grew rapidly as other producers entered the category and consumers flocked to the single-serve options for their convenience and portability. In 2002, the winery began producing canned wine, and in 2004 they single-handedly launched the canned wine category with the debut of the stylish Sofia Minis (187ml mini aluminum cans filled with Sofia Blanc de Blancs sparkling wine), in an effort to make premium wine more accessible. “For a category that’s accelerated so rapidly over the years, consumers are still loyal to the Coppola brands they trust and admire, because they know we will deliver the same premium quality, consistency, and authenticity they know and love in a bottle, into a can.” “It was Francis’s instinct and creativity that first brought wine-in-a-can to the forefront of the wine industry with the introduction of the Sofia Mini cans more than a decade ago,” says Corey Beck, Francis Ford Coppola Winery’s President and Director of Winemaking.

The move solidifies the winery’s position as the leading premium wine producer in the canned category. The winery, which revolutionized wine-in-a-can, now adds three premium quality Diamond Collection whites – Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, and Sauvignon Blanc – to the flagship portfolio. Leading Premium Wines Offered in Convenient Single-Serve Cansįrancis Ford Coppola Winery is proud to announce the release of the winery’s popular Diamond Collection white wines in cans.
