ROC: The Women of Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery - Session 2



The Women of Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery


Many of you know the story of Dr. Konstantin Frank, but do you know the stories of the women that helped create, forge and mold the winery into what it is today?  Come learn the history of Eugenia, Hilda, Lena and Margrit as presented to you by Meaghan Frank.

A little about our presenter Meaghan Frank:

The Frank family wine legacy that started with Dr. Konstantin Frank in the early 1960's has continued into its fourth generation with Meaghan Frank as the winery's General Manager.  Meaghan is the daughter of current winery President, Fred Frank and the great-granddaughter of Dr. Konstantin Frank.

Meaghan received her MBA from the University of Adelaide in Australia, which has one of the top wine business programs in the world.  Most recently, Meaghan received her Master's Degree in Oenology from Cornell University.  With combined expertise in wine business and winemaking, Meaghan plans to revolutionize the way the winery is run as well as the quality of the wines.  Already, Meaghan has brought many innovative ideas to the winery, including the 1886 Reserve Tasting Room and a single vineyard series named after the Frank Women.
