Pic of the Day - Inspecting Bottles

I'll admit it - I was spying. We ran across a tiny winery (bodega) in a tiny town somewhere south of Mendoza, Argentina, and there was a warehouse on the grounds where I could see people working inside - wheeling equipment in and out, hosing out and stacking barrels, taking measurements of barrels' contents, and generally being very very busy. This woman caught my attention - she was sitting perfectly still and staring at empty bottles passing in front of her on a little conveyor belt with a big light machine behind them. The conveyor belt disappeared through a plastic curtain along with the empty bottles - I really wanted to find that room where the bottles were headed, as I had a sneaking suspicion they were about to be filled up! But alas, all the doors were locked and we couldn't get in.

Mmmmmm.....wine......
