Why Book With Sartvourezâ„¢?
Sartvourez™ is a new and exciting way to enhance your appreciation for art and wine-tasting, catering to both novices and connoisseurs. Our unique facilitation approach blends evidence-based methodologies from visual arts education, the contemplative mindful eating and meditation movements and the field of positive psychology.
Empower yourself. Enhance your enjoyment.
Fine wines like master works of art are teeming with interpretations. It takes years of traditional study to understand the intricacies of a painting or wine. Not so with Sartvourez’s unique approach. You’ll quickly uncover multiple meanings in art, and discover complex layers of flavors in wine. Your active learning and exploration not only bring insight and know-how in the way you personally understand art and wine, your enjoyment of the entire experience intensifies.
We design our sensory experiences to allow you to ease back and immerse yourself in the moment to gaze at painting and attentively taste a fine wine. In the process, you will improve your observation skills, increase awareness of sensations in your body and mind, and enhance your ability to savour art and wine through all your senses.
Community-built knowledge that sticks.
During a Sartvourez event, different kinds of learning happen simultaneously: your individual learning and your collaborative learning as part of the group. We combine complementary learning strategies so that you develop deep knowledge and skills that will stick with and follow you to your next encounter with a piece of art or glass of wine.

Sartvourez Themes
On the Shoulders of Giants
You’ll explore a masterwork of art and a fine wine produced in the tradition of a great winemaking region of the Old World. From there, we delve into interpretations of these artistic and viniculture achievements through a modern or New World lens. Through your senses, you’ll discover traditions and innovations, over time and place, in the creative expressions of art and wine.

Human Encounters of the Natural Kind
We look closely and taste deeply wine and art that highlight the beauty of the natural world. Against this, you will compare an aspect of nature that has been impacted and transformed by human intervention. We’ll ponder and experience the role and forces of nature, of people, of innovation and technology, and how their coexistence are expressed in art and wine.
Converging Cultures
Since the beginning of history, humans have been driven to explore and discover the world. Through the prisms of art and wine, we’ll take you on a sensory journey to other worlds. You’ll probe the ways in which cultures interact, influence, compare and complement one another.
