Top 3 Smartphone Apps for Wine Lovers

1) Swig: Wine and Connections

Wine is your passion, but unfortunately, your friends don't share the same enthusiasm. While they might enjoy a glass now and then, they're not particularly interested in wine labels or your food pairing suggestions. If you love talking about wine for hours, check out Swig, an English-language app that brings together the wine-drinking community. The app allows users to share photos of their wine, cocktails, and spirits discoveries. There are also dating sites for wine enthusiasts, like Vinealove, a sort of "Meetic" for wine lovers launched in 2013.

2) Pipotron: Impress at Tastings

Want to impress your friends at a wine tasting but lack the right vocabulary? The Pipotron app has you covered. Simply discreetly pull out your phone and type a question like “What do you think of this wine?” Pipotron will suggest ready-made phrases used by seasoned wine tasters. Here's how it might work in practice (see video below).

3) Wine Quiz: Brush Up on Your Wine Knowledge

“Which of these names is a Bordeaux château: La Levrette, La Brouette, Le Missionnaire, or La Grenouille?” If you're a fan of the popular Swedish trivia app Duel Quiz and have an interest in wine, you'll love the "Wine Quiz" app launched in 2015 by Revue du Vin de France. Like "Duel Quiz," you can challenge your friends with over 1,000 humorous and offbeat questions, all while refreshing your wine knowledge.
