A spectacular and unexpected Petit Manning (a little Viognier!). A gorgeous Uruguayan Petit Manseng, Viognier blend from En Cerro Chapeu.
At Beauty, we sat down with Todd DeVincenzi and Alexandra Calla to talk about Inglenook, not just as a winery, but as a living legacy. From its roots as one of Napa’s earliest estates to its restoration over the past 50 years by Francis Ford Coppola and his late wife, Eleanor, this is a story shaped by vision, care and a deep connection to place.We explore what “old Napa” really means, why Rutherford Bench matters, and how Inglenook continues to champion balance, structure, and age-worthy wines in a region often defined by excess. It’s a conversation about history, stewardship, and what it takes to carry something forward, while staying true to what made it special in the first place.What’s in our glasses? These five beauties!
Why, it's a Dolcetto from Piemonte!
