Name a more iconic duo than a fresh, hot-from-the-oven pizza and a beautiful glass of wine. We'll wait.
It's OK if you can't think of one. Whether it's a cozy Friday night in with your S.O. and a favourite movie or a beautiful sunny afternoon on your patio, nothing beats pizza and wine. They're a match made in heaven, and the most iconic duo that we can think of — especially when the bottle is from Coppola Wines.
Now available at the LCBO, Francis Ford Coppola Winery's Diamond Collection wines are carefully curated to pair perfectly with any occasion. From the cabernet sauvignon and the zinfandel to the merlot and chardonnay, Coppola Wines are beautifully diverse.
Cool summer evenings call for a warming, full-bodied wine, and Francis Coppola Diamond Collection Ivory Label Cabernet Sauvignon sure delivers. Made in the Golden State, this classically styled Cali cab features notes of cedar, prune, liquorice and toasted oak. It's the perfect combination of fruity and dry. When you're not pairing this crowd-pleasing wine with pizza, break it out at family barbecues alongside juicy burgers or serve it with steaks on date night.
For a lighter serve that's still dry, Francis Coppola Diamond Collection Chardonnay is just begging to be poured on those warm, sun-drenched afternoons. Notes of buttered popcorn and oak are beautifully balanced by juicy pear, orange, melon, apple, pineapple and grilled mango. Pair it with barbecue chicken or lunchtime pizza parties.
