Story told by Rasif– Baba Vanga’s security
“I am a local citizen of the town of Petrich. I have 0.1 ha of vineyards that I have been looking after for 20 years. We harvest the grapes at the end of October.”
Baba Vanga: Risaf when are you going to pick the grapes?
Rasif: On 26th of October.
Baba Vanga: I see in the room at the main floor you have one, two, three, four big wine barrels. One of them is opened at the top.
Rasif: One of the barrels was given to me by the father of my wife
Baba Vanga is laughing: the one made of chestnut wood?
Rasif: Yes the chestnut barrel.
Baba Vanga: Now I see you took all wine barrels out to fill them up with water so they soak. The one that I mentioned that is opened – you won’t drink one from them – Baba Vanga continues to laugh.
Rasif: This can’t be. My wife’s grandfather and father have drunk wine from that barrel for 80 years – and now you are saying that I won’t drink wine – don’t believe that.
Baba Vanga: If you put grapes in it, only the grape marc will remain
“Since every day I head to work early in the morning at 5:30 am, I decided to take a quick look at my wine barrels, to eventually fill up some of the barrels with water if they needed to. The barrel that Baba Vanga was talking about had not a single drop of water in it – I found that one of the staves has decayed and the wine was completely spoiled!
