Bjornson Vineyard is a family-owned winery in the Eola-Amity Hills, committed to growing and crafting wines with integrity, sustainability, and a strong sense of place. Known for our award-winning Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, we also love introducing guests to lesser-known varieties like Aligoté, Chenin Blanc, and Mondeuse Noire—wines that reflect our curiosity and willingness to explore beyond the expected.

We’re looking for a Hospitality Supervisor to lead our tasting room with warmth, professionalism, and a genuine enthusiasm for connecting people to the land, the wines, and the stories behind every bottle. If you love creating memorable guest experiences, mentoring a team, and working with wines that go beyond the usual, we’d love to meet you.
