Wine Associate

Taste Wine Bar & Market is where great wine, gourmet bites, and good vibes come together. We’re a fresh, modern concept blending a chef‑driven deli with a self‑serve wine‑tasting experience featuring 48 wines on tap from around the world. If you love hospitality, enjoy connecting with people, and get excited about wine and food, you’ll fit right in.

• Upsell food, wine, and retail items in a natural, hospitality‑driven way.
• Highlight at least one Taste event, activation, or program (Wine Club, Loyalty, Vinoversity) with each guest.
• Refill and maintain enomatic wine dispensers and beverage stations.
• Keep retail shelves tidy, stocked, and visually appealing.

• Monitor temperatures and quality for beverages like Sangria, Mimosas, and Frozees.
• Support the team by bussing tables, cleaning glassware, and maintaining a spotless bar and seating area.
• Communicate with chefs and managers about specials, shift details, inventory, and any guest needs.
• Work side‑by‑side with the kitchen team to deliver a seamless Taste experience.
