Bungling Italian authorities turn water into wine

A town where wine gushes from an ornate fountain in the main square is the ideal place to live for many people. But a town where it pours out of the taps and into the kitchen sink is a place not very far removed from heaven.

The dream became reality for the residents of Marino, south of Rome in the Castelli Romani chain of wine-producing towns, however.

The residents thronged the steep cobbled streets to celebrate the Sagra dell’ Uva - annual wine harvest. At the heart of the festival is the moment when the year’s newly pressed vintage spurts forth from the Fountain of the Four Moors, decorated with grapes for the occasion, to a backdrop of fireworks, dancing and - not least - drinking.
