Consumer Warning: Wine Works Well Misuses Oak Room Wines’ Copyrighted Images

Beware of Wine Works Well: Protecting Our Intellectual Property and Your Trust

At Oak Room Wines, we have always prided ourselves on the quality of our custom wine products and the trusted relationships we have built with our clients since our founding in 2013 by Jason Robertson. Our reputation for excellence is deeply rooted in our craftsmanship, exclusive designs, and personalized service.

Unfortunately, it has come to our attention that a competitor based in NSW, operating under the name Wine Works Well, has unlawfully used images of our products on their website and social media platforms, including Instagram and Facebook. These images, which showcase our finished works and the wine labels we have designed for our valued clients, are being falsely represented as products of Wine Works Well. This is a blatant breach of our intellectual property (IP) and copyright.

Oak Room Wines Has No Association with Wine Works Well

We want to reassure our current and prospective clients that Oak Room Wines has no association whatsoever with Wine Works Well. The wine labels and products they are showcasing as their own were exclusively designed and produced by Oak Room Wines for our clients.

On 24 September 2024, we formally issued a Cease and Desist letter to Wine Works Well, demanding the immediate removal of our copyrighted images from their website and social media. Legal action is pending should they fail to comply.

We Value Your Trust

At Oak Room Wines, we understand that trust is the foundation of our business. We are committed to upholding the highest standards in everything we do, from our custom wine labels to our dedication to delivering the best possible service to each of our clients.

Our clients can rest assured that all the products we showcase on our website and social media platforms are authentic Oak Room Wines creations, made with the utmost care and attention to detail. Any use of our work by unauthorized parties is not only misleading but a violation of the principles we stand for.

Industry Impact: A Warning for Our Peers

This issue is not only isolated to Oak Room Wines. We have also alerted our friends at Wine Time in New Zealand, as Wine Works Well has similarly used photographs of Wine Time’s products, misrepresenting them as their own. We stand together in protecting our intellectual property and preserving the trust that our clients place in us.

Moving Forward

We will continue to monitor this situation closely and take all necessary legal steps to protect our business and our clients. Oak Room Wines will not tolerate any misuse of our work, and we are confident that our loyal clients understand the values and commitment that set us apart from the competition.

If you have any concerns or would like more information, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly.

Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

Jason Robertson

Founder & Owner
