Vintage is where the real work , and the real magic happens. At Vinarchy, the new global wine leader behind Jacob’s Creek, Hardys, Campo Viejo, St Hugo, St Hallett, Petaluma, Stoneleigh and more, vintage is the heartbeat of our craft. And at Tintara in McLaren Vale, you’ll be right in the centre of one of Australia’s most iconic winemaking regions.
We’re looking for a Vintage Assistant Winemaker to join our 2027 team. Someone who thrives on the pace, the pressure, the problem‑solving and the pure joy of making great wine from grape to glass.
You’ll be right in the thick of vintage, working shoulder‑to‑shoulder with Winemakers and the Cellar team as fruit rolls in and the winery comes alive. Your days will be a mix of hands-on activity, sensory decision-making and supporting the flow of vintage operations across the site.
This is a role for someone who loves being close to the fruit, close to the action, and part of the decisions that shape premium wines.
You’re someone who already knows their way around a winery and wants to deepen their craft. You bring practical experience, a steady hand and a genuine passion for making great wine.
If vintage is your favourite time of year and you thrive when the pressure is on, you’ll fit right in.
Tintara is home to premium McLaren Vale fruit, modern equipment and a vintage culture built on camaraderie, curiosity and pride. You’ll gain exposure across a large, dynamic site while still feeling part of a tight-knit team. It’s the kind of vintage experience that opens doors, across winemaking, production and global operations.
At Vinarchy, we’re committed to building a diverse, dynamic and inclusive culture. Prospective candidates will be required to provide proof of legal work rights and complete relevant pre-employment screening to verify eligibility and suitability.
If you’re motivated, hands-on and ready to help shape the 2027 vintage at one of Australia’s most iconic winery sites, we’d love to hear from you.
