Tasting Room Host

Job Description Job Description Part-Time Tasting Room Associate Part-Time | Sundays + Special Events We're looking for a warm, personable, and enthusiastic person to join our tasting room team. This is a part-time position primarily focused on Sundays and occasional special events , making it a great opportunity for someone looking for a flexible schedule and a fun environment. The ideal candidate is someone who genuinely enjoys meeting people, making conversation, and creating a welcoming experience for guests. You don't need to be a wine expert—but you should have some knowledge of wine or a strong interest in learning. What You'll Do * Welcome guests and create a friendly, relaxed tasting room experience * Lead wine tastings and talk with guests about our wines * Share stories about the winery, winemaking, and the wines we produce * Help guests select wines based on their tastes and interests * Process sales and assist with wine club sign-ups * Keep the tasting room clean, organized, and inviting * Assist with special events and private gatherings * Represent the winery with enthusiasm and professionalism What We're Looking For Personality is the most important qualification. We're looking for someone who is: * Naturally outgoing and comfortable talking with strangers * Warm, personable, and genuinely enjoys hospitality * A good listener who can read a room and connect with different kinds of people * Dependable and comfortable working independently * Flexible and available for Sundays and occasional special events * Knowledgeable about wine or genuinely excited to learn * Comfortable speaking about wine in an approachable, non-intimidating way * Able to create an experience that feels personal rather than scripted Wine industry or hospitality experience is a plus, but we're more interested in finding the right person and personality . The Schedule This position is primarily Sundays , with opportunities to work additional hours during special events, private gatherings, and other winery activities. A flexible schedule is important, as event dates and hours may vary. The Right Fit We're a small winery, so this isn't a position where you'll simply be standing behind a counter pouring wine. We want someone who enjoys becoming part of the experience—talking with guests, telling the story of the wines, and making people feel like they've found a place they want to return to. If you're friendly, curious, dependable, and passionate about hospitality, we'd love to hear from you.
