Understand and select wine like an expert with Tipsi, your mobile sommelier.

 

The app supports an upgraded wine experience with a user-generated and growing database for wines as well as a personally rated wine cellar, a social media outlet and a wine encyclopedia.

 

Using Tipsi, diners can break down a restaurant wine list by price, value and other metrics and conveniently scan a wine label to access ratings, notes from wine makers and reviews.

 

 

Users can select the type of dish they plan to order and review the bottles and glasses offered that pair best with their meal and can narrow options by budget, wine rating, wine style and personal taste preferences.

 

In addition to wine knowledge at your fingertips from consumer-generated reviews and photos, the app provides food and wine pairings as well as commentary at partner restaurants. It does this through its partnerships with the world’s finest sommeliers at thousands of restaurants nationwide, including popular venues in New York, San Francisco, Chicago and Washington, D.C.

 

It also features a social feature, making it easy to share and discover not only your own tastes but your friends’ tastes as well.

 

The Tipsi App is available on the App Store and Google Play.
