The best Vivino
alternatives in 2026.

Best for: Buying wine, and the biggest label database there is

Vivino identifies bottles nothing else can, because tens of millions of users have been photographing labels into it for a decade. The community average is genuinely useful as a floor — a 3.2 is usually a 3.2. What it is not is a description of your palate, and the marketplace is now the centre of the app rather than a corner of it. If you scan mostly to decide whether to buy, none of that is a problem.

Pick Vivino if you mainly want to buy wine and want the biggest label database in existence behind the scan.

Best for: A serious collection, and the deepest tasting-note archive online

Twenty years of community notes and critic scores, drinking windows, valuation, and an export everyone else imports from. The interface shows its age and there is nothing here that teaches you anything, but for several hundred bottles across multiple locations it remains the reference implementation.

Pick CellarTracker if you own hundreds of bottles and want the deepest inventory and valuation tooling, with community tasting notes on almost anything.

Best for: Reading what the trade drinks

Delectable was built around following named sommeliers, winemakers and critics rather than a crowd average, and that idea still has no real replacement. The catch is dates: its last App Store release was September 2021. It has 25,910 ratings and a good reputation, both earned before the app stopped shipping. Use it to read, not to store five years of your own notes.

Pick Delectable if you want to read what named sommeliers and winemakers are drinking — accepting that the app has not shipped a build since September 2021.

Best for: Rack-and-bin organisation for a physical cellar

InVintory maps your collection to real locations — cellar, rack, bin, case — and imports from CellarTracker, Vivino or a spreadsheet, which is the single hardest part of switching. There is an AI sommelier over what you own. It is built to be paid for and priced accordingly, and there is no learning layer, but for a collector moving off a spreadsheet it is the shortest path.

Pick InVintory if your collection needs rack-and-bin level organisation and you are moving off a spreadsheet or CellarTracker export.

Best for: Cellar management with nothing bolted on

Oeni does inventory and label scanning cleanly and stops there. No social feed, no course, no shop. At 774 ratings it is the largest of the small apps, and if every list on this page feels overloaded, that restraint is the reason to pick it.

Pick Oeni if you want cellar management and nothing else, without a learning layer or a social feed attached.

Best for: The closest direct rival, and the best-looking cellar in the category

Sommo launched in January 2026 with a scanner, a tasting journal, a wine school and a 3D cellar wall you can orbit and drag bottles around in. It is the only other app here that treats learning as a first-class feature. Where it differs: its scanning is aimed at labels and tasting flight cards, not at a restaurant wine list ranked against what you are eating.

Pick Sommo if the 3D cellar wall appeals to you — it is the best-looking cellar view in the category and nothing here matches it.

Best for: What a bottle should cost and who has it

Wine-Searcher is a price-comparison engine, not a wine app, and comparing it on tasting notes misses the point. If the question in front of a shelf is “is this a fair price”, it answers that better than everything else on this page combined. It will not remember what you drank.

Pick Wine-Searcher if the question you actually have is "what should this bottle cost, and who has it" — nothing else comes close on that.
