Producer organization Vinpro must be joking if they think anyone will pay R750 to listen to a bunch of nonentities at their open day next year.

A black hole emits more light than this collection of low wattage bulbs. What exactly are Nedbank, Old Mutual and Mutual & Federal paying for if punters must shell out R750? It surely can’t be for the ligte ete.

Now I’m sure Jane Robertson is a great gal, but she surely ain’t Jancis Robinson who performed this year. And she was a big disappointment. Still if farmers want a day away from the farm in Cape Town they should say they’re Vinproing and divert to Mavericks where R750 will get way better value.
