An Invercargill man died in hospital of head injuries a week after a woman hit him in the face with a pepper grinder, a High Court jury was told.
Police described it as "a case of aggravated assalt", and described the grinder-hurling as a performance "that should only be attempted by seasoned professionals".
The bottle is then riddled, so that the lees settles in the neck of the wine bottle... Manual riddling is still done for Prestige Cuvées in Champagne... mechanised riddling equipment (a gyropalette) is used instead. (Wikipedia)
