(NBC NEWS) – A distillery apologized to neighbors after a river of surplus wine rushed down a narrow, hilly street in a small town in Portugal.
The alcoholic flash flood Sunday in São Lourenço de Bairro was captured on video and appeared as a torrent of red wine. No injuries were reported, but the wine may have entered a home’s basement, according to the distiller, Destilaria Levira, and the Portuguese news platform Jornal Diário de Aveiro.
Firefighters diverted the flow from a nearby river and into fields, the publication reported.
