“Targeted content is key,” says luxury lifestyle writer Marisa D’Vari, who writes for Financial Times, Robb Report Decanter, Drinks Business UK, Quarterly Review of Wine, San Francisco Chronicle, South China Morning Post, and dozens of other consumer, trade, and custom publications.
D’Vari is an expert in the wine world, luxury travel, and gourmet cuisine, having attained diplomas from the French Culinary Institute and the world’s most prestigious wine schools (see resume here).
Today she translates her extensive education and celebrity contacts into highly targeted content for niche publications. Previously she hosted A Taste of Luxury, a television lifestyle show in which she interviewed celebrity chefs such as Todd English and the late Julia Child.
