Buy a vine from Stormhoek

The time has come to put your money where your mouths are and help a friend. Stormhoek amongst some has been hit hard by the collapse of their UK wine distributor. Read the full story here. So you can help them by buying a vine in their vineyard for ZAR2000 (approx. US$270) and support the guys that supported us bloggers so generously with free wine at almost every Geeky gathering.

Please, if you can afford it, buy a vine. If not, help spread the word and please Digg it here.

I’m in for sure!
