Piled up scrap wood caught fire this afternoon at the Casa Larga Winery in Perinton.
Casa Larga Marketing Director Andrea Coloruotolo O’Neill says quick action by multiple fire companies kept the fire from damaging the vineyards. Neighbors and Casa Larga customers saw the fire starting and called 911 immediately.
The fire started in scrap wooden stakes that had been pulled up in the spring and stacked. The cause isn’t known yet.
