Harvest Assistant - Biodynamic & Italian Varieties
(Wine Jobs:
Vineyards & Cellars )
Contract
DaVero Farms & Winery
Healdsburg,
California
DaVero Farms & Winery produces just over 4,000 cases of wine a year – all from Italian and Mediterranean wine grapes – that sit at the intersection of climate appropriate varieties, traditional natural winemaking, and regenerative farming. Our two estate farms are certified Biodynamic and are located in Healdsburg, CA.
We’re looking for a person to join our 2020 team; someone who has high standards for their work, who loves working in all aspects of wine production, and enjoys learning each new day. Being a team player is vital for this position.
Past experience in grape growing or winemaking is needed. Formal Viticulture or Enology education is strongly valued. You’ll be asked to perform all basic tasks relating to harvest/ crush such as: vineyards visits, sampling fruit, extensive and thorough cleaning of all equipment and facilities, frequent monitoring of fermentations, lifting and moving heavy materials and equipment (must be able to lift 45 lbs), and working long hours. Harvest is a grind, but a rewarding one that gives each of us a chance to be better wine growers, wine educators, problem solvers, and innovators.
This position is seasonal and can begin as early as July and typically goes through the end of November. Harvest is the perfect time to see if you’re a fit for our team.
