These wines are crafted for discerning consumers and are ideally suited to fine dining restaurants, independent retailers, premium regional chains, luxury hospitality venues, and exclusive wine programs looking to offer something extraordinary.

The role of Independent Wine Broker with Vina VIK presents an exciting opportunity for a motivated and experienced professional to represent this celebrated Chilean wine portfolio as an overlay in their territory. This position is structured as a 1099 independent contractor role compensated exclusively on a 100 percent commission basis, making it an ideal fit for self-directed sales experts who thrive on building relationships and driving sales independently.

The successful candidate will be expected to leverage existing relationships with wine buyers, sommeliers, retailers, and distributors while strategically expanding Vina VIK's presence in the market. Active market engagement through account visits, staff training sessions, tastings, and marketing initiatives will be critical in generating brand awareness and depletions. Regular communication and partnership with distributors will also support seamless brand representation and follow-through. The position requires a proven track record of selling premium or luxury wines and an ability to manage and grow a portfolio without direct supervision.

Candidates currently representing complementary wineries, distilleries, or breweries will find this role particularly aligned with their experience. The ideal broker is professional, well-organized, commercially savvy, and possesses strong communication skills to maintain consistent follow-up and generate momentum at the account level. Vina VIK values brokers who understand the nuances of the local wine market and who are adept at identifying high-potential opportunities in restaurants, hotels, private clubs, independent retailers, and premium retail chains.

Overall, this role offers the chance to join one of Chile's most ambitious winemaking ventures and contribute to the growth of an internationally recognized luxury wine portfolio, with significant potential for commission-based earnings tailored to performance and business development success.
