Main characters
- Angela Channing (née Gioberti) – Jane Wyman (1981–90; 208 episodes)
- Angela is the tough, tyrannical matriarch of Falcon Crest and a powerful woman in the Tuscany Valley, who is the principal character of the series. Having two daughters – Julia and Emma – from her first marriage to newspaper owner Douglas Channing, she goes on to marry three more times. Determined to preserve and expand Falcon Crest for her heirs, she ruthlessly combats any challengers, with her nephew Chase and her ex-husband Douglas' allegedly illegitimate son Richard proving the most formidable of her opponents. Angela married her devious lawyer Phillip Erikson, but became a widow a short time later. She later married her old flame, billionaire Peter Stavros though the marriage was shortlived, and then married her old friend Frank Agretti. Angela was almost killed by Charley St. James, who tried to smother her with a pillow. She was left in a coma for several months before making a full recovery and returning home. Jane Wyman appeared in almost every episode of the series, for eight seasons, plus the first two and last three episodes of the ninth season, for a total of 208 of the 227 episodes of the series, missing 19 episodes (mostly in the final season) due to health problems.

- A former commercial airline pilot and Vietnam veteran, Chase moves back to the Tuscany Valley from New York after the death of his father. Having inherited some land from his father, Chase is determined to make a go of running the winery which in turn brings him into conflict with his aunt Angela. The mysterious nature of his father's death eventually makes him half-owner of Falcon Crest, much to Angela's dismay. Throughout the course of the series Chase is shot (twice) and later is swept away by the waters of the San Francisco Bay (Robert Foxworth left the series in 1987).
- Lance Cumson – Lorenzo Lamas (1981–90; 227 episodes)
- Lance is Julia's son and Angela's heir and grandson. A handsome ladies' man, he enjoys a playboy lifestyle but is also used by Angela as a henchman in her schemes.

After divorcing Melissa, Lance then marries Richard's stepdaughter Lorraine, who later dies. After relationships with singer Apollonia and a second relationship with Melissa (who dies in the fire), Lance eventually marries Pilar Ortega, the vineyard foreman's daughter.

She eventually marries Angela's stepson, Eric Stavros, but the marriage is turbulent and does not last.

Originally she was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, but she was deemed unfit and was institutionalized. Having escaped from the psychiatric hospital to kill Angela for the years she controlled her life, she presumably died in a cabin fire when a Sheriff's deputy shot at her and hit a kerosene lamp instead.
