28/02/2019 Apps that will be the next big thing in the wine world

Apps are the next big thing! It all starts with an app idea, planning, design, and development leading to testing and finally are on our devices! Wine apps are taking a big place in the market. Having said that, as per the research, the Americans tops the list in the wine app world. It is believed, the majority of wine apps have been created by US developers keeping into consideration the American users. The apps can be very helpful giving you information very quickly. It is like a library of wines, wherein you get all the information at one place. It helps tracks and organizes a person’s favorite wine. Feature in the app enable users to check the price along with the attribute to compare ratings and prices. It encourages users to share their photographs with their favorite bottle which help them match their drinks with food. Hence, wine sales in restaurants are diminishing because of the high-end prices of the wines.

Some of the top-ranked wine apps include, Delectable (Free, iOS and Android), Vivino (Free, iOS and Android), Wine Ring (Free, iOS and Android), Wine Searcher (Free, iOS and Android) and Hello Vino (Freemium, iOS, and Android) along with remaining ones in the list.

Apps although may help you keep your ratings at one place and track you down a bottle of wine, but still have not been able to replace with sommeliers who are the experts you converse with. Remember, as said, ‘Best sommeliers are storytellers and not cork pullers.’

But with all these in place, apps indeed are the next big thing in the wine world, which kind of is worrying for the sommeliers.
