The role of a Harvest Intern requires a dedicated, driven, and detail-oriented individual who is interested in delving deeper into the intricacies of winemaking. Working closely within an intimate team, you will engage in every facet of winemaking ranging from monitoring phenological phases in the vineyard and sampling grapes for harvest to sorting and stomping fruit, inoculating, and overseeing fermentations, cleaning equipment, daily pump-overs, and punch downs, among other tasks. The experience will expose you to a wide variety of varietals, including Pinot Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Rhone, and Cabernet varietals.
Despite long days and weekend work, our team ensures that harvest is also an enjoyable and educational opportunity. We encourage discussions and tastings of our wine portfolio, as well as delving into mystery wines from around the world. Flexibility is critical in this role, and availability to work weekends is just as crucial. Lunch is provided every day, and we ensure a fun and educational opportunity. This position requires flexibility based on vintage and winery needs from approximately August through mid-November. We invite you to join us in crafting exceptional wines, where hard work is coupled with a great sense of camaraderie during the harvest season.
