Your private sommelier

Snap a label.
Meet the wine.

Photograph or type any wine label. WineGuide works to identify the bottle, tell its story with cited sources, and find alternatives with live prices - then keeps answering your questions.

WineGuide runs on Poe. A Poe account is required, and use draws on Poe points.

How it works

From bottle to briefing in three steps.

1

Snap the label

Photograph the bottle in front of you, or simply type the wine's name.

2

Get the Quick Look

Producer, region, grapes and style, worked out from the label in one glance.

3

Go deeper

Read the sourced story, compare alternatives, and ask anything else.

What you get

A sommelier's briefing for any bottle - with sources you can check, not guesswork.

Quick Look

The essentials at a glance: what the wine is, where it comes from, and how it drinks.

The story, in seven chapters

Terroir, people and critics in seven short chapters, designed to cite sources so you can check where details come from.

Four alternatives, live prices

Comparable bottles with prices looked up from merchant listings across 25 countries. Availability and accuracy vary, so confirm with the merchant.

Ask the sommelier

Keep the conversation going: food pairings, drinking windows, or what a fair price looks like.

WineGuide, compared

Five popular wine apps, selected using US App Store rating counts and category fit. What each one does best, and where WineGuide works differently. Written by us, fairly.

These pages are our own promotional take, built from each app's published information and public listings - not independent reviews, and not hands-on test results. Trademarks belong to their owners.

Good to know

  • Prices come from live listings at the moment you ask. Always confirm the price and vintage with the merchant before buying.
  • WineGuide runs on Poe. You need a Poe account, and each use draws on your Poe points. The cost varies with what you ask for, so check current Poe pricing for your plan.
  • This page has no sign-up forms and no tracking. The conversation happens inside Poe.

Next time you hold a bottle, ask it something.

Open WineGuide and snap the label.
