We are seeking a Vintage Cellarhand for 2017, beginning late March 2017 for approximately 8 weeks.
The role offers diverse experience in dealing with large commercial quantities along with smaller parcels of premium wine. The successful candidate must

- have a broad knowledge of all winery operations and equipment, including RDV
- have a current drivers licence and ideally a forklift license.

The breadth of winemaking, a small team and the resulting chance to learn makes this an excellent chance to further develop your winemaking career, particularly in relation to small premium parcels. This position would also suit an experienced cellarhand wanting to get into winemaking.
