About
My name is Ethan Margolis and I have worked extensively in Santa Barbara's wine region at wineries like Melville, Longoria and Sanford as well as possessing 10+ years connected to Spain's gastronomy and wine scene where I honed my 'service' etiquette. I have also worked in restaurants and hotels with quality wine departments like The Los Olivos Wine Merchant. I've been in Spain for the last month or so doing some studies on new movements in unfortified Palomino and now I'm back and ready to dive in to a new position that fits. I have good availability now and would love a chance to try and make it work if you were interested.
