Harvest Winemaking Internship

Harvest Winemaking Internship

Boeschen Vineyards

Saint Helena, CA

Job Description:

Boeschen Vineyards is a boutique family-owned vineyard and winery committed to making the best possible estate wines.

We run the business, make the wine, perform 100% of the cellar work and farm our 11-acre estate vineyard.

We are guided by commitment to our family, the wines we craft, the community we live in and the environment that sustains us.

We are currently looking for an energetic and driven individual to help with all aspects of winemaking during our harvest season.

Here are some but not all of the Winemaking intern's activities to be expected:

Fruit receival and processing

Equipment Sanitation (processing equipment, tanks, pumps, hoses, parts etc)

Fermentation Monitoring (Barrel, T-bin, and tank ferments)

Nutrient additions

Yeast inoculations

Pump-Overs, and punch-downs

Wine and juice sampling

Ongoing sensory analysis (tasting, smelling, listening)

Draining and pressing

Racking wine

Barrel Work: cleaning, steaming, filling, transfers etc.

Organization

Gathering data

And so much more!

Must be happy to work in a small team, be timely, not use your cellphone in the cellar, and pay attention to small details.

Although we'd love it if you have some harvests under your belt no experience is necessary; just a great attitude and a willingness to work with your both your brain and your muscles at the same time.
