Description

Proprietor Jean-Charles Boisset’s French bulldog, Frenchie, represents the very essence of style, charisma and personality. With his stout stature and talent for stealing everyone’s heart, he is definitely royalty around the winery! At Frenchie Winery, we offer a range of fun-loving and tail-waggingly delicious wines graced with portraits of Frenchie himself, posed as famous figures from French and American history.

Tasting Notes
Aroma: 

Swirling the wine coaxes out luscious red fruit aromas and notes of espresso and vanilla bean. 

Palate: 

Raspberry, black cherry and blueberry flavors are layered with hints of caramel on the palate. Soft well-balanced tannins and make this sensuous wine ready for immediate enjoyment.

Winemaking
Vintage Notes: 

This Red Wine honors the many faces Frenchie has held over the years, from Napoleon Bonaparte and Ben Franklin to Betsy Ross and Marie Antoinette. A mixed-breed blend of six varietals, this is truly a delicious and fresh wine that pairs nicely with every occasion.
