When workers arrived at the Coteau Rougemont vineyard in a wooded area in Quebec, Canada, there was nothing left to pick.

Benoit Giroussens, manager of the vineyard, told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation: “It’s really frustrating to see all the work from the last year was just wasted.

“We think they came in with [all-terrain vehicles] or a tractor and just ripped the grapes straight off the vine.”

“We are offering five cases of wine to anyone who will help us pin down these unscrupulous thieves,” said a post on the vineyard’s social media page.
