Rias Baixas vines destroyed overnight

 



This is the most appalling thing I've read in recent days. On 2 August, vandals cut down centuries-old vines in the Rias Baxias region. With just weeks to go before harvest, they've destroyed a good percentage of this relatively new cooperative's harvest along with the vines' ability to recover.

That has to be a retaliative strike by the competition. Let's hope I'm wrong. 

How their hearts must have sunk to see this vandalism. It's incomprehensible that someone would be so vicious as to destroy ancient living beings. 

Here's their letter to the perpetrators. I hope they get what they deserve.
