&wijn was an investment to develop and create a great looking and easy to use App playing on the heritage of wine culture yet with a contemporary edge. We succeeded and became app of the week at BNR Radio and Red magazine, received praise in Bright and a top 10 downloadable app in Apple’s App store! Created whilst interim Creative Director at Aestron B.V (now Dream Catch) with Mike Patist and powered by Sprigs, &wijn was created to choose the perfect wine to accompany food and vice versa. The database was compiled by Sommelier of the year Edgar Groeneveld together with Felicia Alberding from Elle NL and Tom van der Heijde from Michelin star restaurant Frouckjestate.
