2024 Harvest Intern
Seasonal F/T
Harmony Cellars
North Coast, San Luis Obispo County
Harmony Cellars was one of the first 20 wineries established in the Paso Robles AVA. Founded in 1989 by Chuck and Kim Mulligan, the winery has grown from a 2,000-case micro winery to a 7,500-case boutique production facility. The winery and tasting room are located in the rolling hills off HWY 1, 7 miles north of Cayucos, in the tiny artisan town of Harmony--Population 18.

Though Harmony Cellars sits amid plenty of open land, due to a high magnesium content in the soil none of it is suitable for vineyards. But that suits Winemaker Chuck Mulligan just fine. Because Harmony isn’t tied to an estate vineyard, he is able to offer a diverse selection of wines, all of which are produced and bottled in Harmony. Harmony wines are made with fruit selected from vineyards along the Central Coast from Monterey to Santa Margarita.
