California’s Frank Family Vineyards hosted an intimate tasting of allocated fine wines at Murphy Distributors on October 25. Trade guests were invited to sip through Frank Family Vineyards’ Blanc de Blanc, Sparkling Rosé, Lewis Reserve Chardonnay, Napa Cabernet Sauvignon, Rutherford Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, Winston Hill Red and The Patriarch. The Napa Chardonnay, Carneros Pinot Noir and Napa Zinfandel were also available for tastes. Liza Gallia, the New England Sales Manager of Frank Family Vineyards, led guests on a discussion following the history of the vineyards, the family and the winemaking process. The vineyard, the third oldest winery in Napa, was founded in 1992 by Rick and Connie Frankin Calistoga. The original building on the winery property is on the National Register of Historical Places. Frank Family Vineyards are made under the guidance of winemaker and general manager Todd Graff.
