Reporting directly to the Chief Winemaker, an opportunity exists for a highly motivated individual to fulfil the role of Winery Assistant.
Our Brand Story:
Three generations of farming expertise; the dairyman, the cattleman and the winemaker. They all share the same name, the same united passion for the land. As a tribute to this, Usher Tinkler Wines was born. A rich heritage. But at the end of the day, it’s about keeping things simple. The way it should be done. The way wine should be made. And really, it comes down to cultivating fruits of the vine and taking the time to get it right. We call it authentic, honest-to-goodness winemaking.
