LCBO recalls D'Aquino Pinot Grigio white wine from Italy

TORONTO - Ontario's Liquor Control Board is recalling an Italian wine, but not for the usual reasons.

Some of the 1,500 ml bottles of 2007 D'Aquino Pinot Grigio delle Venezie are nothing but water.

George Soleas, the board's vice-president of quality assurance, said Tuesday there is no risk to the public.

"Basically, the chemical testing we have done, that was quite extensive, shows it is just tap water."

"The only reason we decided to do the public recall is because we stand behind the quality of our products 100 per cent," Soleas said. "And a lot of these products, because they are Christmas items, they are going to be gifted and I didn't want to have people surprised on Christmas Eve or New Year's Eve opening this product and finding water instead of wine."

"It was a human error basically, it wasn't a tampering issue at all," he added.

The problem was at the bottling plant where the bottles are flushed out with water.

"I guess someone was waiting for Jesus to turn it into wine," he joked.

Customers returning bottles to the LCBO will receive a full refund.

Apparently someone sold this wine before its time.

Personally I think that it's a scam. They bottled water hoping that you'd have pity and save their asses, then they'd turn a huge profit. Too bad that they don't know what a day on the cross does to pity.

If they want a bailout, they can call Congress.

Those assholes stabbed me in the ribs with a fucking spear.

A FUCKING SPEAR!

I don't know why, but this has me thinking of, "Guy killed me with a sword, Mal. How weird is that?"

Could've been worse. Imagine a feather duster for 6 hours. hope that you sent them to Chinese hall. Chinese got a lot of hells.
