Inglenook Celebrates 140th Anniversary with Expansion

By May 24, 2019Top News

Francis Ford Coppola, proprietor of Inglenook, announced in April that the historic winery will mark its 140th anniversary by significantly expanding its caves. The expansion will accommodate the addition of 122 stainless-steel fermenting tanks, each dedicated to one of Inglenook’s 122 vineyard parcels. “Since it was founded in 1879 by Gustave Niebaum, Inglenook has been renowned for its creativity, quality, innovation and industry leadership,” said Coppola. “We continue that tradition and dedication with this significant cave expansion, led by our director of winemaking, Philippe Bascaules.” The project kicks off a yearlong celebration of Inglenook’s 140th anniversary.
