Sheep Help Make New Zealand Winery's Grapes Taste So Good

These sheep don't have a baaaaad gig at all!

A New Zealand winery, called Brancott Estate Wines, hired a group of 1,900 sheep to hang out in the vines every summer, reported Country Living.

The "wooly workers" pluck leaves from the vine canopy to uncover the grapes on the vine, exposing them to sunlight. By doing this, they are enhancing the wine's taste, as pinot noir grapes produce the best flavors when paired with extra sunlight.
