Gaping Void & Stormhoek
Hugh MacLeod has a brilliant blog at gapingvoid.com. It is primarily made up of cartoons he has drawn on the back of business cards. They are fantastic.
The reason why I bring them up on this wine blog, however, is because he is a marketing and blogging consultant for Stormhoek, a small South African vineyard, whose “hacker” approach to wine making is currently getting a lot of attention in the wine trade. He has a page of his cartoons designed to be Stormhoek wine labels and you have got to check them out. I’m sold… as soon as I see this in a shop, I’m buying it.
My favorite: “By the second bottle we had solved ALL the world’s problems. We rock.”
Thanks for the kind words. Rock on =)
