"Wine Vandalism: Hooded Intruder Wastes €2.5 Million Worth of Luxury Wine in Spain"

A vandal targeted a Spanish winery, causing over £2 million worth of luxury wine to be wasted by opening three vats, resulting in the loss of 60,000 litres of wine. The winery, owned by winemaker Jose Moro, suffered a significant financial hit, and Moro has filed a complaint with the Civil Guard. The attacker's actions were deliberate, and the investigation is ongoing with no suspects caught yet. This incident is not the largest wine-related disaster, as a previous arson in 2005 resulted in the loss of six million bottles of wine.

Brad Pitt's Legal Battle with Angelina Jolie: Accusations of 'Looting' and Wasting Money on 'Vanity Projects'

In the ongoing legal battle between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie over their winery, a company formerly owned by Jolie has accused Pitt of acting "like a petulant child" and wasting money on "vanity projects." The filing alleges that Pitt engaged in a vindictive campaign to dominate and loot the wine business they co-owned. The dispute arose after Jolie sold her 50% stake to a Russian oligarch, prompting Pitt to claim that she did so without his knowledge to wrestle control away from him. The latest complaint claims that Pitt has refused to allow the new co-owner to participate in the business while draining its assets on personal projects.

Brad Pitt accuses Angelina Jolie of "vindictively" selling her stake in their Chateau Miraval winery behind his back, claiming she "sought to inflict harm on Pitt" in new court documents.

"Discovery of Lavish Ancient Roman Winery at Villa of the Quintilli Near Rome"

Archaeologists have discovered the remains of an 1,800-year-old winery at the Villa of the Quintilii outside of Rome, which was designed as much for the spectacle of wine-making as the practice itself. Decorated rooms around the winery appear to have hosted guests who would observe the wine-making process, and the finishes seem installed for appearances over practicality. The excavations reveal how ancient Roman elites reimagined the annual vintage as a 'theatrical' performance, prioritizing the experience of those observing over the practical needs of the workers.

The site is located at the Villa of the Quintilii, which is located southeast of Rome on the ancient Appian Way and is open to the public.
