Sunrise phase for .vin and .wine

Le  .vin et le .wine sont arrivés ! (No we didn’t just forget to translate that.)

Just like Beaujolais nouveau can’t be released before November 19th, we’ll be releasing domains in .vin or .wine extensions in the Sunrise phase November 17th, 2015. Imagine the scene at one minute past midnight on November 16th, millions of cases of .vin and .wine domains being loaded into a sleeping to Paris from little villages all over Burgundy.

By motorcycle, by truck, by rickshaw, by helicopter, by balloon, by elephant or via the wormhole on the other end of the black hole Fermi is creating, we hope to be the first to deliver to you the first .wine and .vin (French for “wine”, if you didn’t know already) of the Sunrise phase. Okay that’s not how it really works, but imagine.

And if you must be the first to have a .wine or a .vin domain, you can try to be one of the first 100 wine pioneers. These lucky select few will be able to register their domains for free, so long as they put up a wine-appropriate website before the end of the Sunrise phase on January 16th, 2016. During this phase, .wine and .vin domains will be available for $176.23 per year. Then, from January 24 to January 27, 2016, these domains enter a three-day Landrush period when they’ll be available for $197.83 per year.

Finally, these two extensions enter the GoLive phase, when they will be available for $68.09 per year at A rates, on January 27, 2016 at 8:00 AM PST.

So we are raising our banner : The .wine and .vin have arrived!

Will you be the first to serve (a webpage from) this .wine / .vin?

How about some?:
