Didn't realize they wanted to go all the way back to the 1800's workhouses.

Moreover, even with any legal, moral, ethical issues aside, I can't see random, potentially resentful kids developing the expertise, attention span and work ethic to maintain something like premium wine vineyards, particularly just for short windows like summer breaks
That could possibly be a very costly blunder for a vineyard / winery
