About WineFluent

WineFluent is a five-week summer wine education series designed for people who already love wine and want to take their knowledge to the next level. Hosted at top wine bars across Los Angeles, each session features a curated tasting of 10 wines and an engaging, thematic class experience led by a sommelier.

This is not your average tasting event—it’s a social, high-energy, expertly guided experience where wine lovers come to refine their palate, expand their vocabulary, and connect with a like-minded community.

About the Role

We’re seeking a dynamic, personable, and highly knowledgeable sommelier or wine educator to lead our 5-week summer curriculum. You’ll guide a group of 15 wine-loving participants through weekly tasting sessions, themed around real-world wine fluency—from tasting technique and terroir to food pairing and reading wine lists.

You must love talking about wine, teaching in a way that’s both expert and approachable, and creating a fun, social atmosphere while maintaining structure and education.

Responsibilities
  • Lead 5 wine tasting sessions (1 per week), each featuring ~10 wines
  • Collaborate on wine selection and session structure (we provide the curriculum)
  • Deliver lively, engaging, and educational presentations tailored to intermediate-level drinkers
  • Facilitate group discussion and Q&A in a social, friendly environment
  • Help create a warm, inclusive, and energizing class atmosphere
Requirements
  • Certification from WSET (Level 2 or higher), Court of Master Sommeliers, or equivalent experience
  • Previous experience leading tastings, classes, or wine education events
  • Confident speaker with excellent interpersonal skills
  • Passionate about making wine accessible, not intimidating
  • Punctual, organized, and comfortable working with our team and partner venues
  • Available for all 5 class dates (exact schedule TBD)
Bonus Points For
  • Experience working with local wine bars or distributors
  • A strong point of view on wine education styles
  • A sense of humor and storytelling flair
To Apply

Please send your resume, relevant certifications, and a short note about your approach to wine education to info@mirroevents.com . Feel free to include any past event links, videos, or social media if applicable.
