You are correct! Wine Quiz Answer: A. Francis Ford Coppola
In 1975, Francis Ford Coppola and his family were living in San Francisco, and he was searching for a country place to spend the weekends. That was when Coppola discovered the Inglenook winery in Rutherford, in the Napa Valley. With the proceeds from The Godfather, Part II, he bought the 1,600-acre estate for $2.5 million. He renamed the property Niebaum-Coppola, after himself and its founder, the Finnish-born sea captain Gustave Niebaum.
