Events Coordinator-Milea Estate Vineyard

About Milea Estate Vineyard:

Welcome to Milea Estate Vineyard, where our story is one of passion, growth, and exceptional wines. It all began in 1984 when we started as a charming equestrian retreat. But in 2012, we took a leap of faith and planted our first grapevines. The fruits of our labor came to fruition in 2015 with the release of our inaugural wines. Since then, Milea Estate has become renowned for producing exquisite Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, and Central European cultivars. Our dedication to excellence has earned us numerous accolades, including the titles of Best Winery in the Hudson Valley, Best Cabernet Franc, and Best Chardonnay.

But our journey doesn't stop there. We're thrilled to announce the opening of Hudson Valley Vineyards, a new winery located just 15 minutes from Milea Estate. With this expansion, our company is buzzing with excitement and opportunities for growth. As a part of our dynamic team, you will find plenty of room to flourish and make your mark.
