Helping others was a core value that was instilled in both Rich and Leslie throughout their early lives. While growing up, charity was not taught or learned; it was simply a fact of life. Their parents each taught them humility, work ethic, and a giving nature that laid the foundation for which they have built Frank Family Vineyards. To this day, Rich and Leslie’s humble beginnings in Bayside, New York and Hamilton, Ontario guide Frank Family’s commitment to social responsibility and championing people and causes we love.Read more

Frank Family made the initial switch to renewable electricity in 2022 when the winery enrolled in Marin Clean Energy’s (MCE) Deep Green Program, allowing us to source 100% renewable energy from local wind and solar power. Our recent solar array installation consists of 800+ solar panels that has allowed us to shift from not only purchasing clean energy and supporting the renewables market but to generating our own and adding more carbon-free power to the grid!

Utilizing a comprehensive suite of technologies in the vineyard, Frank Family Vineyards closely monitors the needs of our vines to irrigate precisely and only when necessary to minimize water use while maximizing grape quality.

We are actively working to increase the amount of recycled material in our packaging and aim to have an average of 50% recycled content across packaging materials. To reduce the impact of our glass packaging on the environment, we launched a glass lightweighting initiative in 2025 making an average 15% glass reduction across 8 wines.
