Description

One of the most popular wine apps in the US, UK and Canada - this app is different. Pocket Wine unlocks the complex world of wine, giving you an insight that has taken others years to achieve.

Based on unique wine style definitions it enables you to easily navigate, explore and gain a clear understanding of all the major Table Wine grape varieties and blends (there are 78 featured in the app). It even identifies the styles you will like most based on your answers to some carefully designed taste related questions and you can share the results on Facebook. Food and wine matching is also demystified. Regular use of Pocket Wine will greatly increase your comprehension and enjoyment of wine.

It does not review individual wines, recommend wines to buy or try to sell you wines. Instead it provides you with a novel and easy to use model that allows you to approach wine like an expert and make you own informed decisions.

Four star review from leading US app review site 148Apps.com:"Pocket Wine is a fantastic little app for the wannabe wine connoisseur or even those who know what they're talking about but want to double check, or possibly learn of new wines they hadn't heard of before. This app alone could ensure that I finally appreciate wine properly".

Rated 4/5 by Appsafari:"Pocket Wine is delightfully thorough and ... serves as your personal guide to knowing and understanding everything about wine. It is a comprehensive guide to becoming a sommelier in training."

Recommended by WinePressBlogger: "It would seem there is no wine or grape left untouched in this amazing app."

All the content is original and has been tailored specifically for this novel approach to wine. It does not contain brand endorsements or advertising and is fully operational off-line so there is no need to connect to the web you can use it anywhere, at any time.

Pocket Wine is designed to be an indispensable guide to Table Wines for the novice and keen wine enthusiast alike.

Many wine apps deliver enormous amounts of information which can often make the subject of wine even more confusing.
