**Salary**: $50,000-$60,000 (based on experience)

**Application Deadline**: Saturday, October 4, 2025

**About Us**

Founded in 1972, Palatine Hills Estate Winery is a family-run estate winery rooted in the wild heart of Niagara-on-the-Lake. What began as a grape-growing farm has evolved into an award-winning winery known for its laid-back charm, creative spirit, and 100% estate-grown wines. Led by second-generation brothers Johnny and Charles Neufeld, we’re proud of our heritage but never afraid to shake things up. Whether it’s a reimagined tasting garage, bold new labels, or the Ramblers Supply Co., everything we do is fuelled by passion, authenticity, and a touch of cheek.

We like to say we’re made for the wild. And if you’re the kind of person who can manage a marketing plan and a wine pour in the same afternoon, you just might be too.
