"Toasty, leesy and custardy, with overtones of citrus and white peaches. Despite being fermented and aged 11 months in 100% new French oak, it's not overdone, being medium to full-bodied, plump, round and generous, with cream and citrus notes lingering on the prolonged finish."

Seared Ahi Tuna on Sesame Crackers
This classic dish from Mustard Grill’s main menu is a perfect pairing for Frank Family’s full-bodied, single-vineyard Chardonnay. This wine has beautiful presence and depth that can stand up to the rich, umami flavors and tender texture of the seared tuna, wasabi cream, and Asian-style dipping sauce. The slightly flinty finish of our Chardonnay provides a clean wash of the palate, so you’re ready to take another bite.
Butternut Squash Ravioli with Sage Brown Butter
Roasted butternut squash, sage-brown butter, and amaretti cookie crumbs are some of the delicious ingredients that Napa Valley’s Chef Nash Cognetti uses to enrich this fall pasta dish. Pair it with Frank Family’s Lewis Vineyard Chardonnay for the perfect fall-inspired bite.
Pumpkin Arancini
Chef Christina Machamer’s fesh take on these traditional Sicilian risotto balls is the perfect make-ahead Thanksgiving appetizer. While labor intensive, these delicious arancini can be made up to two months ahead of time and kept frozen until your holiday guests arrives.
Citrus Spiced Chicken Wings
Chicken wings are the ultimate comfort food dish and make for the perfect appetizer for any fun gathering. Chef Christina Machamer’s elevated version packs some heat but is balanced nicely by the lemon and orange undertones in the sauce. The bright citrus flavors in the recipe enhances the beautiful citrus notes in our Lewis Vineyard Chardonnay, which bursts with flavors of tangerine, lemon confit, and citrus blossom.
Mexican Street Corn Risotto
This recipe, curated by Chef Christina Machamer, is creamy, crunchy, sweet, and savory – the ultimate comfort food. From its rich risotto base, to the perfectly roasted sweet corn, to the sharp crumble of Cojita cheese and the fresh zing from the lime zest sprinkled on top, this dish seriously has it all.
Strawberry Caprese Salad
Tomatoes might be the traditional fruit for a caprese salad, but strawberries are a summer fruit that also shines when paired with mozzarella, basil, and balsamic vinegar. Strawberries add a dessert-like layer in Chef Christina Machamer’s rendition of this Mediterranean-inspired salad.
