Instead of searching through outdated forums or relying on word-of-mouth recommendations, diners will be able to visually explore restaurants on an interactive map, locate the restaurants closest to them, view the menu, make a booking and get door to restaurant directions - all from the map.
For restaurants, this represents a unique marketing opportunity to attract an audience that is highly engaged, experience-driven and passionate about food and wine culture.
Restaurants that participate will position themselves directly in front of diners actively searching for wine-friendly dining experiences. Rather than competing through traditional advertising alone, restaurants become part of a broader wine tourism ecosystem that encourages exploration, discovery and repeat visitation.
FOOD & WINE - THE PERFECT PARTNERSHIP
Wineries can display a QR Code at their tasting room, on their online store and share via newsletters and social media to help people who have purchased wine from them to find corkage friendly restaurants where the wine they purchased can be enjoyed with a meal.
Restaurants can display a QR Code to identify themselves as a corkage friendly restaurant and give diners information on their corkage policy.
Hotels, guest houses and Airbnb's can display a QR Code to assist guests discover restaurants near them that are corkage friendly. Via the QR Code, the guest would be able to view the menu, book a table and get door to door directions with Google Maps.
The map also creates exciting opportunities for creative campaigns and partnerships.
For example:
This creates benefits for everyone involved.
Wine tourists gain memorable dining experiences and practical solutions for enjoying wines purchased during their travels.
Restaurants attract new diners and differentiate themselves in a competitive market.
Wineries gain additional exposure and encourage direct wine sales knowing travellers have nearby restaurants where they can enjoy their purchases - or enjoy in their restaurant at cellar door prices.
Most importantly, the interactive map transforms isolated businesses into connected experiences.
Travellers increasingly want curated journeys rather than disconnected bookings. By combining restaurants, wineries, accommodation and tourism experiences into one visual discovery platform, the map encourages visitors to stay longer, explore more and spend more within a destination.
The future of wine and culinary tourism lies in collaboration, experience and discoverability.
We invite restaurants, wineries, accommodation providers and experience operators to become part of this exciting new global interactive map and position themselves where modern wine travellers are actively searching for their next unforgettable experience.
