Proprietor Jean-Charles Boisset’s French Bulldog, Frenchie, represents the very essence of style, charisma and personality. With his stout stature and ability to steal everyone’s heart, he is definitely royalty around the winery. Although he may not go down in history as one of the greatest leaders of all time, Frenchie will definitely go down in history as the greatest four-legged winemaker.
