Job Description

Vinifera Wine Marketing is a woman-owned wine brokerage representing family-owned, artisanal wineries from California, Oregon and Washington and imported wine from The Sorting Table Imports. We specialize in working with producers who are rooted in history—or boldly shaping the future of wine—and we're passionate about telling their stories through the wines they produce. We are committed to delivering both outstanding wines and hospitality to our accounts. Our work is relationship-driven and rooted in integrity.

Vinifera Wine Marketing recently acquired Swirl Wine Brokers and due to this expansion, and we are seeking Wine Sales Representatives to manage and grow Los Angeles County & Long Beach.

Role Description:
The Wine Sales Representative will be responsible for managing and growing account base within the defined territory, building strong relationships with on and off premise buyers, scheduling tastings appointments and meetings with wine buyers and accounts, participating in winery visits, trade events, and industry tastings. Someone who already has buyer/account relationships and wine sales experience is preferred, and you need to reside in the territory.

Reps who are looking to pick up another portfolio should apply, but due to the portfolio expansion, we are looking for individuals who currently sell 1-2 portfolios only. Anyone who was a part of the wine layoffs should apply. Vinifera is a highly organized company, and there is room for growth with our portfolio expansion.
