Free wine blind tasting app - would love feedback from fellow wine people
Hi r/wine,
First of all, apologies if this kind of post is not allowed here. Please remove the post if this is not allowed.
I have built an app called “The Unknown Bottle” with a simple idea: making blind wine tasting more fun and approachable with friends/family, at home or at wine tastings.
The host scans wines, guests taste them blind, and guess grape, geography, vintage, and price. I tried to make it fun and easy for beginners try blind tasting (especially the geography guessing which uses Google Maps and bases points on distance to the producer, similarities to GeoGuessr).
I originally made it because I think blind tasting is very fun and I wanted to introduce it to my friends and family. It also has the benefit of letting my fiancée pick a wine bottle, scan it, and then I can blind taste it at home (she is unfortunately not as passionate about blind tasting as me, even though she is better at it). My mates also did a big blind tasting for my polterabend, where most guests seemed to have a lot of fun.
The app is 100% free, and I’d genuinely love feedback from people who are actually into wine.

You can also use the app to train for your blind tasting exams, timed tastings are possible.
I used AI to help me translate as English is not my first language - I apoligize for any AI slop wording.
Thanks either way, and cheers
