The staff at Gervasi Vineyard Resort & Spa receive many questions. They get asked about the menus, the wine, the spirits, The Spa, The Cave, and many, many others. One of their favorite questions is “Which dessert do you recommend?”
Gervasi’s (GV) goal is for everyone to be as helpful as possible in every way. That’s why there is a chat option on the website for visitors to type in questions to receive an immediate answer. GV also thought it would be helpful to provide several lists of the most frequently asked questions from website visitors and guests, which could serve as inspiration for informative blog articles.
For the blog, the questions are grouped by topic or location, and GV’s answers will follow each question. There will be four blog posts of questions and answers grouped as follows:
The first provided questions about the restaurants on the property, including The Bistro, The Crush House, The Still House, and The Piazza.
Blog two offered a second list of questions and answers addressing overnight stays at GV and The Spa.
This post offers a third list of questions received on the Gervasi website and staff. The answers provided focus on OLINDA and Twisted Olive.
The fourth list will focus on GV’s wines, spirits, and miscellaneous questions.
