Wine rating app
Rate every wine.
Remember every one.
Scan a label, score the wine on your own palate, and build a searchable record of everything you have tasted. Free to start on iPhone.
Download on the App StoreHow it works
Three steps from bottle to a rating you will still understand next year.
Point your camera at the label
SomeWine identifies the bottle, the producer, the vintage, and the grapes. No typing, no searching through a database by hand.
Score it on your own scale
Give the wine your rating and write a note while it is still in the glass. Log where you drank it and what you paid.
Find it again months later
Every rating lands in your journal, searchable by grape, region, vintage, score, or price. The bottle you loved last summer is two taps away.
Why SomeWine
A rating is only useful if it is yours.
Most wine apps hand you the crowd average and stop there. SomeWine is built around your own scores, your own notes, and the wines you actually own.
Your palate, not an average
A single crowd average tells you what most people thought. SomeWine builds a Taste DNA profile from the wines you rate highly and recommends against that instead.
Guided tasting, not just a star count
Rate a wine through a structured tasting: colour, primary fruit, oak, tannin, and finish. You end up with a rating and a reason for it.
Ratings tied to real bottles
Ratings connect to your cellar, so you can see how a wine scored the last three times you opened it and whether it is still improving.
Notes worth rereading
Free-form notes sit next to the structured score, with a label photo attached. Private by default, shareable when you want.
Restaurant wine lists
Scan a wine list and see which bottles you have already rated before you order. No more guessing at a list of 200 names.
Learn while you rate
A free structured course covers grapes, regions, winemaking, and pairing, so your ratings get sharper over time.

Questions
Wine rating app FAQ
Is SomeWine a free wine rating app?
Yes. Rating wines, writing tasting notes, and keeping a journal are free, along with 5 label scans a month. Pro adds unlimited scans and cellar tracking.
How do I rate a wine in the app?
Scan the label or search for the wine, then give it your own score and a note. The rating is saved to your journal with the date, place, and price you paid.

Yes. Point your camera at a bottle label and SomeWine identifies the wine. You can also scan a restaurant wine list or a purchase receipt.
Are ratings personal or crowd-sourced averages?
Your ratings are yours. SomeWine learns your palate from what you score highly and uses it to suggest wines, rather than showing you one average number.
