Employment Opportunities

We have found that Social Media works tremendously well for getting our word out. As a result, we now find ourselves in need of more help in our Tasting Room. We are advertising these positions exclusively through our Social Media Channel.

We are interested in hiring either a Tasting Room Assistant Manager or Tasting Room Sales Associates. Interested persons should email me - derek@gadinocellars.com with a resume and contact information.

A little background. Gadino Cellars was started by us in 2004. We started out of the gate with clean award winning white wines followed by good to great reds from our, then, 14 year old vineyard and other long term grower contracts. After 6 years we have established ourselves as a quality grape and wine producer first. That is our focus, our passion. We need people to represent this passion in our Tasting Room. Other skills pertaining to Marketing and Public Relations are a plus. We make wine, we need help selling it to the world. Fortunately, we have a great product at great price points. If you have a passion for wine, we have a great opportunity for you. Read through the descriptions below and let me know if you would like to be considered for a position at our winery in Washington, VA of Rappahannock County. I look forward to hearing from you.
