Fourth Generation

Ballentine Vineyards’ family and team celebrated the 100th Anniversary of the historic Pocai Vineyard in 2005. 

In 2012, Frank Ballentine rejoined his family in Napa Valley, and the fourth generation partnered with his parents to continue his family’s legacy and commitment to the land, honoring its continuous ability to produce great wines. 

Although Van and Betty are no longer with us (they passed in 2019 and 2023, respectively), we continue the family legacy by farming and producing quality wines from our estate vineyards.

With Frank’s business background and collaboration with longtime Winemaker Bruce Devlin, the future of our winery and vineyards is bright. Our winery continues to work to improve our vineyards and wines and host our wine fans at our St. Helena winery.
