Submission #1411

Tasting Room Associate
Part Time
Mid•point Winery
Templeton, CA
Our winery has seen a whirlwind of activity over the past 3 years. We took over stewardship of the historic Rotta property and we are now in the process of opening a bottle shop in Downtown Paso Robles. Coming later this year, our tasting room will be moving into the bottle shop and be named midpoint. Why midpoint you ask? There are a few reasons:


We believe in the connection of people, always striving for improvement, and being authentic.
We are exactly at the midpoint between San Francisco and LA.
How can you always strive for improvement if you have a name like Apex, Pinnacle or similar? That infers you have made it. If you are at the midpoint you are always in a position to learn more about the land, wine, and ourselves to improve.
In life you never know where the end is, we’re always living at the midpoint. We hope you will too.
$16-$19 DOE
ASAP
YOU have always been curious, a go-getter, people love to be around you, you love storytelling and entertaining, building something excites you, you love getting things done, and you want to be in at the start of an amazing journey. We recently purchased an existing winery and dry farmed vineyard in Willow Creek / West side and are undergoing extensive investment and development.


WE are looking for a tasting room associate. This could include pouring in the tasting room, assisting with the wine club, sweeping the floors, pruning a vine here or there, packing boxes, sorting mail, or even making wine (or more likely cleaning up after the winemaker). This position is best suited for someone who desires to be fully immersed in the wine business and is looking to expand his or her knowledge of wine.
