Vint.co, founded by Nick King and Patrick Sanders in 2019, aims to make wine investing accessible by securitizing collections of fine wine and rare spirits. The platform, which emerged from King's interest in alternative assets, employs Gatsby as its web framework and Contentful as its content management system, chosen for their robust developer experiences and plugin ecosystems. Patrick Sanders, who led the development of the Vint website, highlights the benefits of using Gatsby, such as GraphQL for data-sourcing, image optimization, and static site generation with client-side rehydration, while Contentful was selected for its ease of integration. The platform has achieved significant growth, with $1.5 million in gross investment volume and notable investor growth, while also receiving positive feedback for its user-friendly setup process. Vint enables fractional investments in wine and spirits starting at $50, breaking traditional barriers associated with wine investing.
