It works by just taking a photo of its label, which will allow you to see scores (Carmín de Peumo Carmenere, for example, has 79 recommendations and a 9.2 rating), tasting notes, vintages, detect trends, at the same time that you can identify if comments come from wine enthusiasts or experts. And if you want, you can even start a conversation with them. It is almost like a social media. Available on Android, iOS (Free).

In addition, it is available in three languages: English, French and Japanese. Available on Android, iOS (Free)

It also has a section in which you can customize your wine preferences and thus receive special recommendations based on your own taste. Available on iOS (Free)
