Meet Our Wine Club Organizer: Bentley Hale
Bentley Hale, Bar Manager & Wine Club Organizer
“Vroman’s has always been more than a bookstore, so we’re really following that trend here in the wine bar. Since we’re in a bookstore, I’d love to keep other educational and resource elements alive.”
-Bentley Hale
Meet Bentley, The 1894 wine bar manager and our wine club organizer. She joined us after a 20 year venture in the restaurant industry which started locally in La Crescenta where she grew up. Bentley’s enthusiasm for wine developed at a young age while tagging along with family on wine tasting strolls throughout Paso Robles. The beautiful wine country scenery and the laughter in the tasting rooms allowed her to appreciate wine culture before ever having a sip of it. Bentley began working in the restaurant industry at the age of 15 where she was introduced to the professional side of the food and beverage industry. Her hands on experiences have included: dishwasher, bus girl, hostess, server, bartender, and wine sales.
Bentley continued working her way up to training manager as well as corporate restaurant and private club management. Hosting staff wine training seminars, creating wine lists with pairing menus, and planning exclusive wine event dinners throughout her management career helped Bentley realize her passion for wine education.
