Illahe Vineyards is looking to add to our cellar team in an extended harvest position starting in April and running thru October, at which point the position could become permanent.

Illahe Vineyards is a 20,000 case winery in the heart of the Willamette Valley. We focus on producing interesting and high quality pinot noir, pinot gris, gruner veltliner, viognier and tempranillo. Our goal is to strike a balance between new and old world styles, which for us means making wine in a pragmatically natural way. We enjoy blending a mix of cutting edge and historical winemaking techniques and equipment, including a bicycle powered pump and destemmer, as well as using horses in the vineyard.

Cellar duties would include racking, barrel work, bottling, forklifting driving, maintaining proper sanitation of the cellar, as well as typical very hands on harvest duties.

Prior experience of at least one harvest. The ideal applicant would be a competent forklift operator, excited about the winemaking process, very hardworking with a special amount of attention to detail and cleanliness, and skills putting on vinyl albums throughout the day.
