Delarey Posted August 18, 2020 Share Here’s one from Facebook my wife asked me a while back. If you were given R10 million for never drinking a drop of alcohol again. Would you take the money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stefmeister Posted August 18, 2020 Share Shannon Sauvignon Blanc from Elim tonight.Overpriced lockdown wine for Tuesday evening here.

That looks like the labels I see on the South African shelf at Tesco or Morrisons in the UK. As much as I try and punt SA wine overseas, its damn frustrating that the wines that make it to retailers shelves over there are almost always bulk wine that gets bottled on some label with an African motif. Maybe that was an export order that got cancelled under lockdown. Edited August 18, 2020 by Delarey Underachiever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one however is at least a step above that though. The label alone is quite expensive to print if we’re judging it by the label only. It’s been a while but I’d say label alone is about R5 ea if not more. Delarey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
