Hey guys, this is just one case where someone may have been underpaid. I currently earn $18.00 + per hour in the vineyards here in Marlborough. Yeah, that's right, approx $750.00 gross or $600.00 nett. I'm not complaining, and I know many others making very good money too! Sometimes I make $22.00 per hour!!!

This is not a cheap labour market at all. Overall it's a good place with a lot of money to be made ... if you can hack a bit of hard work!
