About this wine
Blancaneaux is Inglenook's white, a Rhône blend rather than the Chardonnay you might expect from Napa, and it takes its name from the Coppola family's hotel in Belize.
Serve at 11 to 13°C, not colder.
Tasting notes
Aromas of white flowers, peach and citrus zest. Rich and vibrant on the palate with apricot, honeydew melon and a hint of minerality, leading to a long, elegant finish. Roussanne, Marsanne and Viognier are the white grapes of the northern and southern Rhône, and together they give a white with far more texture and aromatic weight than most Californian whites.
Goes with
Roast chicken, pork, richer fish dishes, creamy sauces, and soft cheeses.

The producer
Inglenook was founded in Rutherford in 1879 by the Finnish sea captain Gustave Niebaum and was one of the great names of Californian wine before Prohibition. The estate was broken up and the name sold off in the 20th century. Francis Ford Coppola bought the first portion in 1975, spent decades buying back the rest of the land, and finally reacquired the Inglenook name itself in 2011.
