Out of curiosity, I entered “wine” into my smartphone’s app store. Lo and behold many apps came up from this impromptu search! Here are some cool ones I installed:
VIVINO: Free and super easy to sign up, this app allows you to take a photo of the wine you would like to know more about, and as you are enjoying it, the app tries to recognize the label from their database. Once discovered, you will learn all about that particular wine – pricing, ratings…so cool. Totally trying this one out tonight! (there is a paid version for $4.99).
unCORKED: This app is similar to Vivino in that you can scan the barcode to find out about the wine or search by name.
WINE DICTIONARY: When we went to Napa for our honeymoon, we tried to sound as much of a connoisseur as possible. We knew it was ok to spit in the “bucket” but got a bit lost when the tour guides would explain the wine attributes..tannins, huh? This is a GREAT application to learn more about wine regions and wine vocabulary!
Do you use a wine app? If so, please share which one you use and what you like best about it!
