Todd Graff, Winemaker

What started as a weekend retreat for Rich Frank became a fruitful winemaking venture, thanks hugely in part to the commitment and dedication of Frank Family's longtime Winemaker and General Manager, Todd Graff. Petaluma-born and globally trained, Todd has been at the helm of our winery since 2003 and recently produced his 20th vintage with us. Prior to joining Frank Family, Todd's winemaking career began across the globe, where he worked in many of the world's most highly-regarded wine regions, including Germany, France, and Australia. Todd returned to Napa Valley in the late 1980s where he honed his craft and grew his technical skills while working at some of the country's most-esteemed wineries including Stag's Leap Winery, Schramsberg Vineyards, and Codorníu (now Artesa). After 20 years of working as a winemaker in every corner of the world, Todd found his home at Frank Family Vineyards where his forethought, intuition, and deeper understanding of flavor profiles has resulted in consistent quality in our wines, vintage after vintage.
