A hand-painted Stormhoek bottle.

Posted by hugh macleod at August 24, 2006 8:43 PM | TrackBackHugh, do you currently design the labels for Stormhoek? If not, you should. I'm not really knowledgeable on wines, so when I buy, I usually base off price, region and believe it or not, the design of the label. I can't tell you how many times I have bought bottle of wine because of a uniquely designed label.

Or perhaps I'm just hallucinating ;-)
Reckon this design is fab Hugh. A possible goer..?
