Related: About this forumItalian village technical glitch turns water into wine
Italian villagers were baffled and delighted after a technical fault meant wine started coming through their taps instead of water.
The liquid pouring out of taps had the clear smell of Lambrusco Grasparossa, a sparkling red famous in the Modena region.
A leak from a nearby winery's silos meant that wine started being pumped into the local water supply.
Because the wine had a higher pressure than the water in the pipes, it began to run through taps in nearby homes.
Water board technicians rushed to fix the problem.
But plenty of locals bottled as much bonus wine as they could.
Local man Fausto Storti wrote on Facebook that it was a "dream come true".
