Pair Wine With a Movie<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Remedy a cold winter night with a time-honored tradition: movie night. As a winery founded by former Disney Studios and Paramount Television Group President, Rich Frank, we take our wine and cinematic pairings seriously. Under Rich\u2019s leadership, television and movie properties such as Cheers, Taxi, Family Ties, Golden Girls, Pretty Woman, Aladdin<\/em>, and The Lion King<\/em> achieved phenomenal success. Pop in one of these movie classics with your favorite wine pairing, like Pretty Woman<\/em> matched with the flirtatious Frank Family Brut Ros\u00e9<\/a> or Beauty and the Beast<\/em> with Carneros Chardonnay<\/a>, one of France\u2019s most beloved grape varieties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sip by the Fireside<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s nothing more romantic than cozying up next to the fireplace, toasting with a glass of sparkling wine, and savoring a plate of treats. If the great outdoors are calling your name, head outside to build a campfire with a comforting bottle of Zinfandel Port<\/a> and marshmallows for roasting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wine Taste at Home<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Sign up for the Frank Family wine club<\/a> for 6-24 bottle collections shipped directly to your doorstep or select a few bottles on your own from our online shop<\/a> and play sommelier. Swirl, sniff, and sip to see if you can identify the aromas and flavor characteristics, or simply determine which bottle is your favorite. Take it up a notch and pair each wine with cheese or chocolates for a special and educational Valentine\u2019s Day experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
