1. How would you<\/span><\/b> describe Frank Family Vineyards? <\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s<\/span> truly a beautiful place to work. Sometimes I take it for granted because I see it every day, but when the sun shines in a different way or when the leaves start changing in the fall, I\u2019m reminded just how lucky I am to call this winery my second home. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

 2. <\/span>What do you like most about working at Frank Family Vineyards? <\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>\n

I can do accounting at many other types of businesses but what keeps me here is that I feel valued and rewarded. I really enjoy the people I work with and we\u2019ve all become a family. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

 3. <\/span>What have you gained from working at F<\/span><\/b>rank Family Vineyards<\/span><\/b>?<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve learned how to step out of my comfort zone. I\u2019ve been given many new opportunities to do new things, sometimes things I don\u2019t necessarily want to do. But, I\u2019m grateful for the confidence this job has given me to try them any ways!<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

 4. <\/span>Any fun facts <\/span><\/b>about <\/span><\/b>you<\/span><\/b>rself that you<\/span><\/b> can share<\/span><\/b>?<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>\n

I taught myself how to crochet as <\/span>a <\/span>child and <\/span>have <\/span>enjoyed doing it ever since. I\u2019ve made blankets, dolls, and I even croqueted my Christmas sweater last year for our annual <\/span>holiday party in the office. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

 5. <\/span>What\u2019s your favorite<\/span><\/b> Frank Family wine to drink this spring<\/span><\/b>? <\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>\n

There are so many amazing wines to choose from, but I gravitate towards our Lewis Reserve Pinot Noir, especially in the Spring time. It\u2019s lighter and a little more fruit forward than a Cabernet and makes a delicious pairing for my scallop potato recipe that I make for Easter dinner every year. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
