Moët is Murder (or "Where Wine Comes From")

Moët is Murder (or "Where Wine Comes From") by bitrot.
Next time someone asks me why I don't drink I'm just going to point them at this photo. Do you people ever stop to think about the pain and suffering you're causing? Well do you??

Note: plenty of grapes were harmed during the making of this photograph.

(Now, where did I put that bacon butty...?)

UPDATE: Crumbs! This got on the front page of Digg on 20 Nov 2008 and rapidly became my most visited photo ever! 64,000 views in a day and counting...

Hahaha! Excellent. Although, I will feel a little guilty as I neck my bottle tonight. I meant glass. Poor little fella!

Nice work - once again I'm impressed with your ability to draw so well on small round edible things.

Mark I hate to be pedantic but seeing as I'm from the industry I thought I'd better point out your reference to Merlot, whilst it is comedic, its also unrealistic seeing as u have used a white grape! Thought I'd better let u down gently before someone else really put the boot in...

Hehe nice!

Alternative titles:
Vinocide.
Stu Francis at work. (People may need to google that one)
Champain.

I think German wines from the Mosel region are mostly white.

Muscat, Muscadet, Marsannay but they are all fairly obscure - Muscadet is the most obvious that springs to mind! How about "Moet is Murder"

LOL!! Reminds me of the IT Crowd last week, where Moss took a bottle of white wine to a party with a label saying "WHITE WINE". :¬)

Stu Francis! Of course! Perhaps a whole series is required depicting tissue-ripping, doll's house-leaping, etc.

Moet is Murder! Genius! Now it gets to go in the crap puns group too. Cheers Jon - I'll let the other comments pass in return for this superb title! :¬D

Oh God, what has Captain Chickenpants started?? And you know what, they don't! Does that make me a bad father? (They don't have a pony either - not even one between them...)

I might just be able to rip a tissue but I've got a cold coming on so it'll have to wait. ;¬)

Thanks Patrick! That's my favourite too. My style is heavily influenced by Roger Hargreaves.

Great comments - how did I suggest Muscadet straight away.. erm, yes I too love my wine, does this make me a grape stomping murderer? Ah well, as long as I get a prize bottle at the end, slurp :D
