Making great wine doesn’t tell the whole story. You’ve got to build a team that shares a contagious passion for VML, really cares about our customers’ experience, and has a heartfelt pride in our community. And while we always have our feet on the ground, the beauty and grace that infuses our work could be interpreted as heavenly inspiration so we thought it would be fun to share our staff’s astrological influences with you. After all, humans have turned to the heavens for answers over millennia. From ancient China through the Greeks and on into today, we have been tracking the movement of the stars and constellations to help make sense of our earthly experiences. What’s your sign?
“Capricorn, and although I don’t always feel connected to the general preconceived notions of this sign, I do know that I am independent and love tackling hard work. One of my favorite Capricorn descriptions is ‘full blown adult since age six.’ My parents would both agree with this statement! Capricorns also belong to the element Earth which makes sense for me as I am most comfortable in staying grounded, being practical and reliable.”
“Pisces, and the qualities I relate to the most are being sensitive and emotionally aware.”
The thing I love most about Sonoma County is that there’s a little bit of everything so close to the country. Great wines all around, especially ours. Great restaurants, awesome food, outdoors, the beach nearby, and the snow a little further up the road. And Lake Sonoma! Love taking the family out there and enjoying a nice glass of wine, preferably our Luci Zin.
Cancer, and I relate to this sign on many levels. My personality has a silly, but also sensitive side. I show care and loyalty to the fullest to family, friends, and people that I interact with.
Aries, and as the first sign of the zodiac it should be no surprise that I am a fearless hard headed leader. Being a fire sign I am very passionate; paired with the strong will of the ram, when i have my mind set on something there is nothing that can stop me.
Capricorn, they are very driven, and I think that’s true to myself, for sure. I’m always striving to learn more and accomplish more! Let’s expand those wine clubs!
Us Leo’s are given a hard time, but I think we can be misunderstood. I pride myself on having a big heart, being kind and loyal. I’m definitely fiercely protective of my friends and those close to me, a quintessential Leo.
Virgo, and we are self-sufficient, ambitious, and wise. Like my sign suggests, I’d like to think I am kind, good-hearted, witty, and fun! I am a very logical thinker, a great listener, and definitely a workaholic! My ambition is the fuel that keeps me going, and I put a lot of effort, dedication, and passion into my work.
Leo, and we are known for being loving, loyal and generous. That is the person I try to be. Apparently. I still have a lot of work to do….
“Leo, and I am definitely a Leo through and through! My loyal, loving heart matches my charismatic, tenacious charm. I am creative, confident and loyal to a fault. I love to be the center of attention-but will also champion someone else as their biggest cheerleader.”
Libra, our ruling planet is Venus, goddess of love and beauty. I definitely relate as I adore all things aesthetic and need to surround myself with beauty! I crave balance and partnerships and pride myself in being fair minded. Often times I do struggle to make a decision, as I feel the need to make it perfect ! Since I’am very social, I can make most people feel comfortable & welcome.
Aries, I would say this relates to me because I love to be spontaneous and explore new things!
I can relate to my sign, Cancer, because Cancers care deeply about their families and are quick to adopt caregiver roles. Cancers attract friends through their loyalty, commitment and emotional depth. They make excellent hosts. Come see me for that excellent hosting!
Aquarius, how I connect to my sign is through how unique an Aquarius is. I am someone that isn’t easy to forget and will stand out.
