(SPOT.ph) Ever feel lost in the wine aisle, overwhelmed by the rows of unfamiliar reds and whites? The world of wine can be intimidating, but fret not. The Marketplace just announced a game-changing partnership with Vivino that will make wine discovery easier than ever—yes, even for beginners. With this collaboration, the leading wine e-commerce platform makes its exclusive debut in the Philippines. To our luck, it comes just in time for the holiday parties around the corner, too!

The Marketplace and Vivino is partnering up. Here’s how it works:
A one-stop shop for navigating the vibrant world of wine, Vivino offers a sort of cheat sheet for both seasoned oenophiles and new vino lovers. It was founded in Denmark in 2010, but now has grown into a thriving community of 70 million users worldwide. More than just providing basic information on premium and popular wines, Vivino connects you to wine lovers from around the world; on the platform, you'll get real, honest, and reliable feedback from actual wine drinkers. It's truly a "sommelier in your pocket"—which we appreciate, as folks who ourselves have fumbled choosing bottles in the past.
And now, with a new partnership with The Marketplace, this handy platform finally lands on Philippine shores. Here's how you benefit: when wine shopping, you can scan the barcode of any bottle at The Marketplace, then unlock everything you need to know about it on the Vivino platform, from scores and tasting notes to user-generated reviews and prices. It's fast, easy, and informative. Next time you're tasked to buy wine at the supermarket, you can rest easy knowing all the deets you need are just a few clicks away.
Beyond browsing wine details and reviews, Vivino also allows users to share their own scores, tasting notes, and reviews of the wine they have purchased and enjoyed (or not). And thanks to the platform's new partnership with The Marketplace, wine lovers in the Philippines get to join in the fun, too.
Look out for Vivino products hitting The Marketplace shelves this November 2024.
