About Aaron Benson
I am passionate about history, geology, geography, travel, humanities, arts, food and culture, all of which culminate in the world of wine. I feel fortunate every day to work in a field that brings joy to so many, myself included. After the unfortunate effects of COVID on the restaurant industry, I am thrilled to have planted a flag in the Napa Valley, which has been a dream for years, and excited to prove my value to a prestigious winery or wine company as a valued team member.
