Demo film with Franck Thomas

It was with great pleasure that we received Franck Thomas, Best Sommelier of Europe, Best Sommelier of France, Best Worker of France and recently promoted to the head of the «Revue du Vin de France Academy» on the stand of ARwinelabels during Wineparis 2020.

Annick Ratsimanohatra and Stefan Gendreau were able to exchange and share with him their vision of the phygital universe of connected labels for Wines & Spirits, via Augmented Reality.

Franck Thomas lent himself to the game by downloading the Snappress application, our partner solution of Augmented Reality developed by French Tech ARGO. And after scanning some labels, he shares his first feeling: “It is a disruptive innovative experience in the still very traditional world of Wines & Spirits, particularly interesting for young people, who are still new to knowledge and internationally for foreign consumers including appellations, grape varieties, consumption patterns still need to be popularized”.

Franck Thomas, as a professional involved in the transmission of his knowledge of the world of wine & spirits has not ceased to transmit his knowledge to all the actors of the wine & wine industry. At the end of 2019, the Marie Claire Group proposed the purchase of its certificating training activities with its nomination as head of the Revue du Vin de France Academy within the Revue du Vin de France and Cuisine et Vins de France.

Thank you Franck for your encouragement and your visit to the Village Startup of Wineparis 2020 and our best wishes for success in your new adventure in the Revue du Vin de France and Cuisine et Vins de France.
