Quick question, Seeker: how many wine clubs are you actually in right now? If you had to think about it — or if you just remembered an allocation you forgot to claim — this one’s for you. The membership problem Serious wine lovers collect memberships the way they collect bottles. A club here, an allocation […]
VinoSeeker started with lists. You’d plan a wine-country weekend and build an itinerary; you’d round up wineries you meant to visit and file them away for later. Useful — but it asked something of you first: you had to know how everything fit together before you could save any of it. Name the list, decide […]
It’s been quiet here on the news front — but behind the scenes we’ve been doing some of the most important work we’ve ever done, and we’re finally ready to show it off. The unglamorous part first. Most of our recent effort went into the things you don’t see: a rebuilt data pipeline and a […]
VinoSeeker has captured tasting notes for as long as we’ve existed — a rating, free-text notes, and (for the studious) a whole accordion of WSET-style fields: appearance, nose intensity and condition, sweetness, acidity, tannin, body, alcohol, flavor intensity, finish, quality, readiness. The structured data is valuable. The accordion was a slog. Today we’re rolling out […]
Your wine fridge fills up faster than you think. Bottles that should drink in 2027 end up sandwiched between bottles you should open this weekend, and bottles you bought to age for a decade sit behind a row of everyday Pinot. Today we’re giving Ava the power to fix that for you — read your […]
VinoSeeker has scanned wine flight lists for a while now — snap a photo of the printed flight at a tasting room, and every wine on it pops into your tasting ready to rate. Today we’re extending that magic to single bottles. From inside any active tasting, you can now point your camera at a […]
We just shipped badges. Open your Profile and you’ll see a new tile for them right next to Friends. A badge is a small mark of something you’ve done on VinoSeeker. Some are milestones — the first sip you logged, the first check-in, your first bottle in the library. Others are tiered, going from Bronze […]
Pick which charts you see and reorder them however you like. Open Library Insights and tap the gear icon in the top right. Each chart can be toggled with the eye icon or dragged to a new position. Try one of the three quick presets — Collector basics, Geo explorer, or Cellar manager — or […]
When the scanner isn’t 100% confident about a wine, it now shows a list of likely matches with three little dots per result — one for the winery, one for the wine, one for the vintage — so you can see at a glance why each option is being suggested. The scanner was confidently wrong […]
The scanner on the Discover tab now handles both barcodes (UPC/EAN) and full wine labels. Snap a label to find the wine, or scan a barcode to jump straight to the bottle detail. If we don’t recognize what we see, tap Add it and we’ll save the scan so the next person finds it faster. […]
Tap a wine and you’ll see horizontal photo strips for bottle shots, label images, trade documents (tech sheets, sell sheets), and any scans you’ve taken yourself. Your own scans render with a little polaroid tilt to feel personal. Tap any image to zoom in. The bottle detail page used to be mostly text — varietal, […]
Sips, check-ins, and group check-ins in the activity feed now have a like button and a comments thread under each card. Replies are supported one level deep. Tap the heart to like; tap the comment count to expand the thread. The activity feed showed you what your friends were drinking and where they were, but […]
