A Northern California river has glistening red streaks of cabernet sauvignon coursing through its waters after the door of a 97,000-gallon winery tank in Healdsburg popped open Wednesday afternoon, authorities say.
The wine spilled into a nearby creek and made its way into the Russian River, about 65 miles north of San Francisco. The leak has been stopped, and 20 percent of the wine has been contained, according to a report from the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services. The office says an estimated 46,000 to 96,000 gallons made it to the river.
