TORONTO, Nov. 25, 2020 /CNW/ – Stamina Group Inc.’s WanderEater Magazine releases inaugural branded content partnership, an at-home dining campaign, #WECaliUpgraded, in collaboration with California Wines Canada, just in time for the holiday season. The campaign encourages and inspires readers to create memorable dining experiences, right in the comfort of their homes, with restaurant-grade recipes, decor tips, and, yes, of course, expertly picked premium California wines.
“I’m beyond thrilled to bring these expert resources and to encourage experiences to Canadians at home during a time when we all need it the most,” said Steven Branco, WanderEater editorial director. “We’re lucky to be able to work with experts in the culinary, beverage and hospitality industries and cannot wait to share this knowledge with our readers. Although Canadians cannot travel right now, much like the rest of the world, a California Style dinner with only the finest California wines will go a long way this holiday season!”
The #WECaliUpgraded campaign comes at a perfect time as many cities across Canada face further restrictions and additional lockdowns. Although the holidays in 2020 will undoubtedly look different, California Wines and WanderEater will provide expert advice from industry experts such as the “Super Wine Girl” herself,Angela Aiello, and celebrated chef and restaurateur Nick Liu; making holidays at home feel special for Canadians. California Wines and WanderEater Magazine strives to educate Canadians about the wonders of the wine diversity, which can be found across California, despite current travel restrictions.
In a time of so much uncertainty, a wavering traditional media landscape, and a captive at-home audience, Stamina Group Inc. looks to fill a content hole in the Canadian market–with purposeful, high quality, engaging content… but a brand partner with vision and the ability to see the big picture, especially in a pandemic, is crucial. “We couldn’t have picked a better brand partner,” said Branco. “Not only was the California Wines team agile, but quick on their feet to make decisions and embraced the whole campaign concept from the start. I can’t think of any better partner–trailblazers, I would say.”
“California Wines is thrilled to launch our #WECaliUpgraded campaign with WanderEater to help inspire Canadians to elevate their at-home dining experience with wines from the Golden State,” said Danielle Giroux, Canadian Director, California Wines. “Through this multifaceted campaign, California Wines is capitalizing on a renewed passion for memorable dining experiences that can be enjoyed in the comforts of one’s home. We all know what a tough year it continues to be, so why not spark some fun and creativity since we are all spending so much time in our kitchens. Who doesn’t feel special when delicious wine and food are served-California style? It’s a great escape moment!”
