Thousands Of Gallons Of Wine Destroyed In Charlton Winery Fire
CHARLTON (CBS) – An historic winery in central Massachusetts was destroyed in a huge fire late Sunday night.
The Charlton Orchards Farm & Winery on Old Worcester Road was completely engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived just after 10:30 p.m.
Twelve communities responded but firefighters had a struggle because there was no water supply at the top of the hill where the distillery was located.
Thousands of gallons of wine were destroyed, in addition to kegs, casks and wine-making equipment.
“There was a lot of alcohol in the wine itself and they utilize a lot of fertilizer as well and they use different things to process so there’s a lot of cutting torches and welding and a lot of metal. There’s a lot of hazards through the whole entire area,” Charlton Fire Chief Charles Cloutier, Jr. told reporters.
There’s no word yet on a cause.
