(Wines&Vines) - The damp and usually cold cellars at most wineries don’t particularly evoke the thought of fire risk. But in recent weeks, two wineries were gutted by early morning blazes that swept through, destroying equipment and inventory.
On July 7 in Fair Play, Calif., the warehouse and tasting room building of Oakstone Winery caught fire just before 4 a.m. The fire destroyed the building, causing $3.6 million in damage.
