In the vineyard

I saw this advertisement for wine on a naturist blog, Avondale apparently being a South African wine producer. I did a bit more research and discovered their advertising campaign for ‘wines au naturel’ goes back to 2008.

Clearly, the idea of nudity in advertising isn’t new, and wasn’t new back in 2008, but still has a power that ‘textile’ advertising probably lacks.

Here’s a crop of Second Life grapes being picked before being fermented. It’s hard work out there in the vineyard, so it’s important to wear a hat while working. Those plump, red grapes are going to make a terrific bottle. 2017 looks like it will be a vintage year!
