To Whom it may Concern,
It is a pleasure to write a letter of recommendation for Brian Jones.
Having worked with him at Del Dotto Vineyards for over a year, he
has consistently impressed me with his diligent work effort and
demeanor. I have worked in the DTC wine business since 1982
(mainly in Napa Valley), and enjoy Brian’s professionalism and
passion for wine.
I have found Brian great at communicating and connecting with
different types of visitors from the wine novice to the collector –
small groups to large parties. He takes groups along a carefully
constructed tour presentation designed to get them to enjoy and
understand the nuances and excitement of the wine industry while
encouraging them to purchase wine. He is strong at sales and
following up with guests through “thank you” cards.
Brian is an invaluable team member and is dependable,
trustworthy and constantly looking to increase his passionate
knowledge of wine and the overall industry. He is hard working,
takes initiative and is highly regarded by his co-workers.
In conclusion, I believe Brian Jones would be an excellent addition
to any winery’s DTC program with the potential present to have
him expand into overall Sales and Marketing positions.
Sincerely,
Steve Hare
Assistant Tasting Room Manager
Del Dotto Vineyards
