Frangipani Estate Winery is a family-operated De Portola property founded by Don and JoAnn Frangipani, with Nick Molina leading winemaking. The roughly 4,500-case portfolio favors robust French and Italian red varieties, and the on-site Oakey Grape Grill makes the property a practical meal-and-tasting stop.
