Team Spotlight

Kristi Short, Tasting Room Manager
Our newest team member has been with Vanessa Vineyard for about 5 months now and we are excited to share a little more about her. You can find Kristi in person at our Tasting Room this summer.

Where did your love of wine come from?
I’ve always found wine very fascinating, the history, the traditions, I’ve just always loved it.

What is your favourite Vanessa Vineyard wine?
It is hard to pick just one, but I think I’d go with the Right Bank.

Do you have any pets?
I have one cat and her name is Shula.

What do you like to do during your time off?
I either like to head to the beach and relax or go golfing.

What was the best advice you have received?
Never sell yourself short!

Secret spot in the Similkameen Valley?
Before starting at Vanessa Vineyard, I hadn’t ventured out into the Similkameen Valley too much. I live in Osoyoos, but definitely looking forward to finding some hiking or fishing spots this summer.

Our team may be small but our expertise is vast. Thanks to our extraordinary people, we are able to craft profound wines that reflect this truly distinctive vineyard. Learn more about our team here.
