“I always think that we are not providing just the wine. We provide the whole experience. So, the temperature is the most important part of that. Serving the wine in perfect condition is very important. When we serve the wine in the ice bucket, sometimes the wine becomes too cold. I think it's important for sommeliers to have a tool to control the temperature. For the end consumer, they are aware of the importance of the temperature. Vivant actually helps me and others a lot with that, and it is very easy to use. You don’t really worry about the ice bucket, preparing the ice, or water—everything. Just simply press the button, turn it on, set it to a certain temperature, and here you go.

I especially love the transparent cover to showcase the label at the same time. And it's wireless; when you run out of battery, just simply swap to another battery. It's very easy to handle.”

Vivant Brand Ambassador Francesco Saverio Russo

Francesco Saverio Russo

Vivant Brand Ambassador
------------------------------------------

“I’m Francesco Saverio Russo, a Wine Blogger, Educator, and professional taster. Vivant products, which I’ve used since their prototype stages, have transformed my tasting sessions.
Venus is particularly useful for quickly lowering the temperature of bottles from 18/20°C within minutes, without cold air loss or the risk of temperature shock, unlike blast chillers. It’s compact, similar in size and weight to a wine bucket filled with ice but without the mess, and the noise is minimal.
Titan, which cools small amounts of wine using a decanter on a cooling plate, is perfect for those who need to quickly temper or decant wine, offering both temperature control and oxygenation.
For sake enthusiasts, Saturn is revolutionary. Its dual-function temperature control (hot and cold) provides ideal serving conditions for both sake and wines.
Vivant’s technology represents a major step forward in wine and beverage service, offering solutions that sommeliers and fine dining professionals have long awaited. Vivant has made the impossible possible!”

Master Chef at INITA

Kunihiro Hagimoto

------------------------------------------
Founder of Somm’s Michelin 1 star Italian Chef

“Italian culture and cuisine have always fascinated me, which is why I originally started cooking Italian dishes. As I delved deeper into Italian cuisine and learned more about the culture, I began incorporating Japanese elements into my cooking. It has since become my favorite type of cuisine.

I believe that wine and food are like a well-matched couple—when paired together, they create something extraordinary. Wine pairing elevates the dining experience, enhancing the flavors of the cuisine to a whole new level.

VIVANT allows you to control the temperature with precision, degree by degree. For instance, the flavor of white wine changes depending on whether it’s kept at 6, 7, or 8 degrees Celsius. You can taste the difference with every slight adjustment. By using this technology, we elevate both our service and the overall dining experience, ensuring the wine is served at its optimal temperature and flavor for our customers.

This is why we choose VIVANT Wine”
