The Geyserville property spreads across lawns dotted with bocce courts and a swimming pool open to visitors, bordered by vineyard rows in Alexander Valley. Inside, Oscar statuettes and film props from Coppola's movies share space with barrel displays. The pavilion-style tasting areas open directly onto the grounds, where families often set up with wine glasses and picnic spreads between bocce games.
The Tasting Experience
Staff pour the Estate Tasting outdoors under covered pavilions, walking guests through five wines that span the Diamond Collection and Director's Cut labels. The Cave Tour & Tasting descends into cellars carved beneath the property, where guides explain barrel aging before pouring reserve bottlings. Groups book the Coppola Feast for $75 per person, a seated family-style meal with wine pairings served on long communal tables.
