  • Experience

    • Wine Tasting Room, Steenberg Wine Estate

      Dec 2012 - Jun 2020
      Sommelier

      I Serve and explain the various wines made by Steenberg to customers who visit the tasting room. Myself along with the rest of the Tasting room staff are heavily involved in customer relations, acting as cellar door ambassadors for the 1682 bistro and Tasting room. I also handle wine sales made from the tasting room. This is a high pressure, fast passed job where constantly being on your toes and thinking 5 steps ahead isn't just a benefit, its a necessity. The job has taught me valuable lessons in teamwork, customer relations, staff management, time management, organizational skills and how to deal with and resolve stressful situations. Show less
