Region
Region is changing how you experience wine. We offer an incredibly broad selection of regional wines, available by the taste, glass, or bottle, in a comfortable and approachable environment – at home or at a Region location. Whether you’re out for a drink or want to dive into regional nuances, we’re here to further wine’s mission to bring people together.

Region’s model has been uniquely designed as a winery co-op featuring 50 local, hard-to-find wines on tap as well as featuring a revolving local winery each week at our hand-pour bar, all in 2 locations – our first in The Barlow in Sebastopol, CA and our second location opened in April 2022 in downtown San Luis Obispo just under the Hotel SLO. Region is striving to develop a unique culture where together everyone enjoys their work, visiting our partnering wineries, being active and truly enjoying our regions.

We aim to make working with our team an engaging and fulfilling experience. Work directly with 35+ wine brands and their winemakers. Expand your knowledge of the wine industry, while diving deeper into what makes these wine regions so captivating, diverse, and unique.



The ideal candidate is a team player who is committed to collaboration and dedicated to their ongoing growth and development. They have a strong sales ability, a true passion for serving others, and share in our belief that providing unparalleled hospitality is one of the most effective ways to build lasting connections with guests.



We are seeking team members who have the basic wine experience but display a deep curiosity for wine, a desire for continued learning in the industry. Those who have a profound excitement and admiration for this region and can ignite that excitement in our guests.
