Our flagship wine, blended from Bordeaux varietals at our iconic hillside site, opens with aromas of blackberry coulis, savory herbs, and subtle graphite. Full-bodied, the palate is elegantly balanced with flavors of blackberry, black currant, and hints of gravel and anise, framed by fine tannins and a long, structured finish.

Our land, affectionately called, Winston Hill, sits 500 feet above the Napa Valley floor in Rutherford and provides structure, depth, complexity, and concentration, all hallmarks of an exceptional wine.
Always delicious to drink upon release, but extremely capable of extended aging, Frank Family’s Winston Hill is a mastery of fine winemaking and artful blending. Each vintage, Todd Graff sets out to create a cohesive, precisely crafted Bordeaux-style blend, using the finest fruit from our winery’s hillside vineyard in Rutherford. He must taste, trial, and blend to create a wine that is greater than the sum of its parts; a skill that requires experience, a keen sense of taste and smell, and most importantly, a goal. Todd’s goal is simple: to make the best wine that is the best expression of our land year after year.
Cozy Pumpkin Raviolo
The perfect fall recipe does exist! Chef Christina Machamer’s classic raviolo recipe gets a seasonal twist with the addition of creamy pumpkin and rich, earthy black truffle. We recommend pairing this pasta dish with Frank Family’s Winston Hill, a graceful and focused wine that brings substantial presence to the table, without dominating the show.
