Francis Ford Coppola Winery

Geyserville, CA, May 13, 2012:   It was so California.  The morning was overcast but the afternoon was glorious with sunshine and no clouds.  We visited the Francis Ford Coppola Winery to see his movie memorabilia and to taste his wine.























Vito Corleone's desk from THE GODFATHER.
Coppala's many awards--Oscars, Golden Globes, Director's Guild, etc.
 
The Tucker automobile from TUCKER: A MAN AND HIS DREAM.
This and that from APOCOLYPSE NOW

Costumes for BRAM STOKER'S DRACULA.
The Versailles pageant ships from MARIE ANTOINETTE













View across the Alexander Valley
Lots of non-wine retail

Lots of shoppers
View of the winery's swimming pool.  Coppola is very family friendly.
The "cabines" rent by the day.

Many enjoy the pool.
A private party enjoyed the bocce.
