BIRTHDAY SECOND WINERY VISIT…read more Two Saturdays ago my sister, her husband, and my relatives took me to two wine tastings for my 50th birthday. Frank Family Vineyards was the second and last winery visit. My sister and her husband have visited this winery before and highly recommended. At this wine tasting there were four glasses. The wine tasting menu was structured with four different wines - one white wine and three red wines. The first wine was the Chardonnay. It was a nice wine to start with in the late afternoon. The next wine was the Pinot Noir. It was more robust wine. The third glass was Zinfandel, which had a smoother taste that the Pinot Noir. The last wine was the Cabernet Sauvignon, which is the wine Frank Family Vineyards is known for. Of all the four wines the Cabernet Sauvignon was my favorite as it had the robust texture along with the smooth taste. Since it was my birthday I was going to buy the Cabernet Sauvignon for $120. Then my brother-in-law convinced the host John if I can taste a glass of the Winston Hill, which was $175 a bottle. I tasted the Winston Hill. It blew away the Cabernet Sauvignon. I didn't buy the Winston Hill, but it prevented me from buying the Cabernet Sauvignon by saving $120. Overall I had an enjoyable while relaxing time for the second wine tasting menu on my birthday.

By the time our group arrived at Frank Family Vineyards, we already had one winery under our belts--and anyone who has ever been on a bachelorette trip knows that 11 tipsy women can sometimes be a little difficult to wrangle! Olivia handled our group so effortlessly. She kept us engaged, made us laugh, and created such a warm, fun, and welcoming atmosphere from beginning to end. What stood out most was how genuine her enthusiasm was. Her personality and passion added so much to the experience and made our time at Frank Family feel incredibly special. I cannot thank Olivia enough for helping create such a beautiful and memorable experience for my friend Stephanie during her bachelorette weekend. These are the kinds of moments that make a trip unforgettable, and Olivia was such a wonderful part of ours. If you visit Frank Family Vineyards, you will be in fantastic hands with Olivia. Thank you for your incredible hospitality, energy, and for embracing our group with such grace and enthusiasm!

My second fav was their white blend "On the White Keys" It's really obvious how passionate the team is with winemaking and with showing people how the best flavor in their wines are produced. Although their main sellers are red Bourdeaux blends, the owners personally also enjoy white so they also offer Semillion/S.blanc blends. Tasting was all really well guided and comprehensive as we were able to taste the younger (?) presses of pure varietals before tasting the final product. We came for a private event and were lucky enough to have the tour co hosted by both winemaker Patrick and awesome Mr. Fritz himself. We had a medium sized group and we all really enjoyed how interactive and thoughtful they made the tour. They're hosted at Chateau Boswell, which was super instagrammable.

Outstanding Wine Tasting In A Cave!…read more SITREP My dear friend Jennifer - one of my true wine connoisseur friends - has made an appointment with the good people at Chateau Boswell, since it is a winery you can see by appointment only. And it is truly an outstanding experience. THE SETUP We actually arrived to Chateau Boswell in Saint Helena (from Sacramento) about 60 minutes before our appointment, but we were received warmly and were able to engage in our truly unique and fun wine tasting experience right away! Chateau Boswell is on the Silverado Trail side of the Napa Valley - not on the HWY 29 side of the valley - so it will be a pleasant drive away from most of the tourist traffic. MATT SIMPSON Marketing Expert, Wine Docent, Vintologist Extraordinaire, and Napa & Sonoma Valley (and European AND Chinese AND South American, etc. etc.) Wine Region expert, Matt is definitely the best "go to" guy you could ask about wine - it's acidity levels, it's pairing with foods, what vines we could grow in our backyard in Sacramento, etc. etc. - and so we were lucky from the start to get his one-man history lessons filtered through the most hiLARious stand-up comic. IN A CAVE Matt guided us through what can only be described as a cave in the hillside of where the Chateau Boswell winery is, and THAT was fun! We went through the labyrinth of several different well-lighted & interior-altered tunnels of this wonderful cave, seeing rows upon rows upon rows, levels upon levels upon levels of the vintage barrels all stacked up nicely & neatly. The white wines were in uniformly plain barrels. The red wine barrels had a giant band of red coloring around their perimeters. [As part of the due diligent maintenance of the storage areas, I found it interesting to see the ultra-violet bug zappers were uniformly distributed throughout the cave, zapping any of the small groups fruit-flies that might sprout up because of the sugars that might excrete from the barrels and dripped onto the ground where the little gnatty creatures liked to congregate.] CAVE-TASTING It was so much fun to be in what can only be described as our own special alcove in the cave, with a wine-barrel with glass-top serving as our wine-tasting station. It is here where Matt delivered some of the most incredible wine knowledge I've gotten to date about the current state of the wine industry, comparing ours to the burgeoning development going on with China's wine industry, all while serving us up some excellent glasses of Chateau Boswell wine. The white Jacquelynn Cuvée Blanc was decidedly by far my most favorite of the bunch we tried, with it's light dry taste and an excellent light-fruity finish, though the red Cabernet was rich with fruity notes that I enjoyed too. The wines are not cheap, and will run you between $50 - $150 a bottle. But if you are truly a wine connoisseur, you are bound to find a unique and quality red or white in this winery that you will truly enjoy. THE LOWDOWN An excellent wine-excursion stop in Napa Valley along the Silverado Trail.

Sign is down. Per the north bay business journal (Jul 10, 2024) quote: "The deal, completed June 21, includes 8 acres of planted vines, the winery, appointment-only tasting room, a garden and a small home, but founder Chris Madrigal retains the namesake brand, according to Hundred Acre. Madrigal did not respond to inquiries on the future of the brand. Madrigal's father, Jess, also founder of Madrigal Vineyard Management, retained 40 acres of vines, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. The purchase price and other terms of the deal weren't disclosed. The Madrigal grape and wine family came to Napa Valley with Jacinto Madrigal from Mexico in 1938. Jess Madrigal started the vineyard company in the mid-1980s, farming about 800 acres of vines. Chris Madrigal started the winery in 1995, and it was producing about 10,000 cases annually."
