I am so impressed with the creativity driving this brand idea. The packaging looks great and it already invites a social element by the very nature of the mixing. This translates into greater word of mouth and more people trying this for themselves. Very neat. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Agreed.

Once you start using it, the genius of the idea is clear. Hope other wineries follow the lead as this is great for education, branding and selling more wine.

Part of me is thinking "genius" and part of me is thinking "Oh for pity's sake"! I hope they ship to the UK because I just have to have this!
