Vinhood wine live: play, learn and win!

These months of forced isolation have been really tough.

However, as we have said several times, for us they were also a chance to get going with new projects, to reflect on what we really wanted to do and to find new ways of interacting with you: our dear audience who we used to meet for our #Wineshows here in Milan.

This is why we created a live format on social media that would entertain, keep people company and, why not, even give them some fun. 

Just like what was happening at our events.

We therefore created Wine Live sessions with producers and the Wine Quiz to let you play, learn and win at home in full Vinhood style.

We interviewed biodynamic, organic companies, which make natural yet also traditional wines, from North to South. Some are small, while others are more complex, and very often family-run.

The selection criteria is the same as has always characterized our decisions: companies with high-quality products that nod knowingly to respect for nature and their region.

We wanted to let you know about Italy’s outstanding wines as much as possible, as well as the incredible people who bring this world to life.

We already knew many of them, while others surprised us in terms of who they are and their professional careers.

WHAT IS A WINE LIVE EVENT ALL ABOUT?

Wine Live events are interviews with producers where we not only discover sensational wineries through the people who make the wine, but they are also a chance for the audience to learn and have some fun.

In fact, before every Wine Live event we invite you to play with us!

There is a wine-themed quiz before every interview open to anyone so they can challenge themselves against other #Winelovers and people interested in this world.

The quiz deals with some of the subjects that will then be discussed during the live event, aiming to get you ready and spark your curiosity. Each live event therefore not only becomes a chance to get to know new companies but also to learn something new.

But the new feature is that by playing you can win a prize offered by the producers: bottles, winery tours… every company tries to play their best cards!

I WANT TO WIN, HOW DOES IT WORK?

It is so easy to play!

Posts and stories are released the day before every live event on Facebook and Instagram, featuring a link that will take you straight to the Quiz.

There will be 10 questions to test out your knowledge of the wines, food and general culture of the home region of the winery we will interview. 

Don’t worry, it’s not difficult. It’s only a little challenge to spark your curiosity and to focus on the subjects that will be explained in more detail and discussed during the interview with the producer.

HOW DO I FIND OUT IF I’VE WON?

To find out if you have won a prize, just follow the interview, the date of which will be indicated both in the post and at the end of the Quiz.

The winner will be DRAWN during the live event! So don’t worry if you haven’t won, lady luck might have a nice surprise up her sleeve for you anyway!
