Working here means being a part of a passionate team that values nature, hard work, and exceptional craftsmanship.

What You’ll Be Doing

This isn’t your average 9-to-5 desk job. As a vineyard worker, you’ll get to spend your days outdoors surrounded by lush vines and stunning lake views. The work is hands-on and physically engaging. Here’s what your typical tasks may include:

• Grading and sorting grapes during harvest
• Maintaining vine growth, managing the canopy, and monitoring grape health
• Mixing and applying organic fertilizers
• Planting, cultivating, and irrigating grapevines
• Using shoot positioning techniques to support vine structure
• Weeding and maintaining cleanliness in the vineyard rows
• Operating vertical farming systems (for certain vine arrangements)
• Spraying crops (organically) for pest and disease control
• Harvesting grapes during the peak season
• Operating and maintaining farm machinery and equipment
• Inspecting crops for signs of disease or pests
• Preparing grapes for processing and market
• Completing daily progress reports and task documentation

This role is open to individuals who are motivated, reliable, and eager to learn. While no formal education is required, having previous experience in farming, horticulture, or vineyard work would be a definite asset.

• Fluency in English is required
• Experience is helpful but not mandatory
• Strong teamwork and communication skills are essential
• Flexibility and a good work ethic are key to success

Working Conditions

Let’s be honest—vineyard work isn’t always easy. It’s physically demanding and often weather-dependent. But if you love the idea of working with your hands, caring for vines, and being outside, this can be incredibly fulfilling work.

• Outdoor work in all weather conditions (wet, hot, dusty)
• Repetitive tasks and physically demanding duties like bending, lifting, crouching
• Long hours on your feet, especially during peak season
• Fast-paced environment where attention to detail matters

• Free on-site accommodation provided for the hired candidate
