Did you know that when making wine, the hole in the side of the barrel, is actually called a bunghole. Yes it is pronounced BUNG-HOLE. The plug which plugs the hole, is called a bung which helps release different gasses, allowing the wine to properly age. I did not know that. Thank Mike Rowe and Dirty Jobs!Tuesday, December 14, 2010
