VIVANT: The First Wine Experience Platform

VIVANT (French for “living, alive”) is the first wine experience platform streaming Live Experiences from wine regions around the world. Founded in 2019, VIVANT has offices in Europe, the United States, and Asia.

Discover the world’s best tasting wines made free of pesticides and herbicides, and meet expert wine advisors who host each live experience.

The advisors teach you how to assess wines with VIVANT’s groundbreaking Interactive Tasting Method and Tasting Kits delivered worldwide, and are available to answer questions, anywhere, anytime.

In 2021, VIVANT is expanding with an exclusive series dedicated to the art of food and wine pairing.

The “Essentials of Food & Wine Pairing” experience focuses on the key pillars for matching sustainable cuvées with different flavors.

The 35-minute live session experience presents the six primary taste sensations — salty, sour, bitter, umami, fat and sweet — and combines them with wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and the Loire with a variety of sweet and dry whites, bold and light reds, etc.

Participants will be guided by VIVANT’s expert Wine Advisors through key learnings and misconceptions about cooking and pairing.

With do-it-yourself pairings, you can taste some of the world’s best responsibly made wines, such as Isabelle et Denis Pommier’s Petit Chablis Hautérivien 2018 and Château Haut-Bages Libéral’s Pauillac 2016.

The Essentials of Food & Wine Tasting Kit is available for purchase on VIVANT at the price of €80 / $78 / £73 / HK$603 / SGD119. Members can already save their spot for live sessions that start on 16 February.

Through this new series, VIVANT members can look forward to more experiences in the playground of food and wine. From a refined cheese board to the gourmet pleasures of the world’s most sumptuous cuisines, VIVANT will feature chefs, cheesemakers, and other industry movers-and-shakers, highlighting the best stories and the best pairings along the way.

VIVANT members have access to all the platform’s Live Experiences. Annual membership is just $149 / €149 / £149 / SGD 239 / HKD 1359 / JPY 18,169 at www.vivant.eco
