Ignis Launches Rue du Calvet Campaign with Experiential Activation

With the sun shining and flora in full bloom, ignis and Calvet Wines brought a little bit of French ‘je ne sais quoi’ to the very British Blenheim Palace Flower Show.

Sampling a Sauvignon Blanc, a Muscadet and a St. Emilion, attendees were invited to try the wines with a selection of complimentary canapes designed by Calvet’s ambassador, Michelin starred Glynn Purnell.

Glynn created dishes inspired by his memories and stories of France pairing them with the wines. This was captured and will be seeded across social channels over the summer.  Brand Ambassadors were on hand to educate visitors about the brand and the wider ‘Rue du Calvet’ campaign.

“The Rue du Calvet campaign celebrates everything that is wonderful about France,” says ignis Executive Creative Director, Nick Peters.

“At Blenheim we were able to engage with our audience in a tactile and multi-sensorial way, bringing the wine to life with stories that inspire people to take pleasure from great wine and good food in the way that our French friends do.  The quality conversations we had are a testament to this approach, and we’re excited to share this on social and broaden the conversation even further.”

Over the course of the three days, six and a half thousand samples of wine were enjoyed by those who engaged with the activity.  The ‘Rue du Calvet’ campaign will run throughout 2018, celebrating and inspiring people to live with a little more ‘joie de vivre’ and create their own unique stories with Calvet.
