A Taste of What You'll Do
Join GALLO's Winemaking team in a hands-on role that helps bring our wines from cellar to glass. Under general supervision, you'll provide essential day-to-day support across the winemaking laboratory and winery, contributing to a safe, organized, inclusive, and high-performing environment. This is an opportunity to build practical knowledge of winemaking operations while partnering closely with winemakers, lab staff, interns, and cross-functional colleagues.
You'll maintain clean, sanitary, and well-stocked lab spaces; care for equipment; manage supplies and incoming materials; and keep work areas, hallways, and carts orderly and ready for use. You'll collect, receive, log, prepare, deliver, and clean up wine samples for testing, tastings, sensory analysis, and winemaker-directed projects. Responsibilities also include supporting bench blending, trials, centrifuging, filtering, lab-solution preparation, and pH/Brix measurements, as well as collecting data for reports and appropriately disposing of liquids, glass, cardboard, and expired inventory.
During harvest and throughout the year, you'll assist with red fermenter spreader checks, tank-top inspections, and MOX processes—including cleaning and sanitizing equipment, placing or removing air stones, and troubleshooting cellar units. You'll also help train interns on routine tasks, follow applicable winemaking SOPs, and adapt to evolving winemaking and spirits making processes with guidance from Winemaking Leadership.
Success in this role comes from reliability, attention to detail, collaboration, curiosity, and a commitment to quality, environmental stewardship, safety, and inclusion. If you enjoy working in a dynamic production environment and take pride in helping teams operate at their best, we encourage you to apply.
