    LOVE this label. Please bring Stormhoek to Ontario!

    This one is fan­tas­tic.
    I’d love to com­ment on this because it works on so many levels, but some things are best insi­nua­ted. ;-)
    I seriously would buy a bottle of the wine on the strength of this label and the reac­tion it’s likely to get from my friends (and girl­friend) which is saying something.
    So where can I get hold of a bottle in London???

    Thanks guys, the wine is just being rolled out in the UK now. It won’t be avai­la­ble in any gro­cery chains, but in bet­ter wine shops and res­tau­rants. We’ll post stoc­kists over the next cou­ple of weeks on Stormhoek.com.

    That’s cha­llen­ging on dif­fe­rent levels.
    Cho­co­late, wine, almost — oooooohhh so close.
    The cat vs ‘the Puppy gets it’ — goooooood (hope that was deli­be­rate).
    We had a cat once who loved marsh­ma­llows — pushes a but­ton, cool.
    You mar­ke­ting Gan­dalf, you.

    This really is a most fabu­lous car­toon. So fabu­lous in fact that I named my blog after it!

    You’re only mar­ke­ting Stormhoek in Anglo-countries for now or elsewhere as well?

    Luka, just the USA and the UK for now… maybe more later, depen­ding on whether we find dis­tri­bu­torship in other coun­tries. Time will tell.

    Hmm … just an idea. Since you’re mar­ke­ting “wine for geeks” — well sort of, etc. — how about hit­ting some Vista launch con­fe­ren­ces? Y’know exc­lu­sive, limi­ted edi­tion mar­ke­ting, etc.?
