Domaine des Blagueurs

As usual, we've shunned the lucrative enticements of the corporate giants when it comes to "sponsors" for the bash.

This year, we chose Domaine des Blagueurs, makers of some fine Vin de Pays d'Oc, which is in south central France for those who haven't been there. The fact that the name means Vineyard of the Jokers and that they had a stylish label by Ralph Steadman had nothing to do with it!

In fact, the label still looked pretty cool the day after consuming the wine (which wasn't half bad either), so you'll be seeing it on this year's t-shirts, if we get around to making any. Mind you, the chances of us having some of the stuff around to drink are pretty slim, so if you see a bottle, pick it up and bring it along!
