Ekaterina has such a joyful personality, she was always able to keep staffs moral up and ensure guests were enjoying their time spent at the winery. She was always focused on providing in-depth details to guests regarding wine education. Ekaterina was always smiling and is equipped with a good deal of wine tasting knowledge.
