I wonder why? Is he having second thoughts? Maybe he also had a blast at this years Stellenbosch Wine Festival. Well done to Annareth, seems like she is doing her job after all! We had a great time!

Wineries seem to have this strange expectation that because they are involved in regional promotion they are suddenly going to see great personal benefit for the estate or farm. The punters are in the area, but if you are quiet it is because your little gem is not as polished as your neighbours. Successful cellar doors actively work to improve their own reputations, as at the end of the day they are also competiting within the region. Go to Wacky Wine, the most successful regional wine event in SA, and you will find that some spots are quiet. Why, because something is not right there. People vote with their feet. Sort your own sh*t out and then the boost from your regional body will be an added benefit.

I had a fantastic time at the fest and will definitely use spitorswallow (as always) to document my wine@ventures!! I can’t believe you get people like this with the scope and foresight of a mole.
