Just a scam

The only free content is worse that browsing Wikipedia to learn about wine. Free content contains errors, over generalizations and incessant pop ups. Due to the horrendous quality of the free content, who would ever pay for premium content?

Informative but room to grow

Awesome app for learning the impact of wine making, regions, and style! Considering the membership price, there is definitely room to grow on some key regions (eg USA with Napa, Sonoma, Willamette, Walla Walla, Finger Lakes), central and southern Italy (Chianti), Germany, New Zealand, Portugal! Can’t wait for more lessons to be added

One bug - in profile under certifications; none of the “region” badges register so it’s impossible to move beyond “Level 1”

Great for beginners & seasoned professionals!

I’ve been using and loving this app for a while now, so I figured it was time to leave a review!

Wine has always been my go-to drink, but I used to stick to familiar brands and regions since I didn’t know much beyond that. True Wine has increased my knowledge and also (unexpected) boosted my confidence! Thanks to the app’s easy-to-follow lessons, I can now describe the wine profiles I enjoy and chat with the waiter to find a wine I would like!

I’ve even started showing True Wine to wine professionals I meet, and they love the concept.

My favorite feature is the region map for all the wines. I’m a visual learner and it’s fun to show the table where the wine comes from & fun facts about the region.

Hands down the best wine learning app

Having tried a few different apps to help study for my WSET exam, this is without a doubt the best one. The quality and depth of the content, along with the UI are great! Really love the interactive regions map - such an awesome feature!
Had a small bug with one of the courses, got in touch with the team and they pushed a fix within a day.
I think it’s well worth the money upgrading to premium, I do think more people would be encouraged if there was a monthly option.

Overall well deserving of 5* and if anyone is interested in learning about wine in a casual way, or more seriously for something like WSET then this is the app!

Quiz is not great for people who want to have fun

I think this app is great, but you can’t advance without passing a 2 minute quiz. I have a learning disability and this is really hard for me. So while I love the first module, I can’t get to any of the others. What a shame and really disappointed

Charged for one year subscription. No free trial.

It says there is a free trial, however, I was charged for a one year subscription. I immediately emailed to explain the situation and ask for a refund so I could try the app. I have received no response after waiting 4 weeks. I have tried the app now and the information for WSET level 2 and 3 is beyond the scope of those classes. It is nice having the chance to learn more, but it is not helpful having flashcards irrelevant to the exam in that pile.

Good

Great info and presentation of material. Unfortunately, it’s buggy, it asks to log in and then says I am already logged in. Unable to reset password.

Response from developer

Hey there! Really appreciate you taking the time to write a review and let us know about this, and sorry about the very inconvenient issue. We received a similar sounding report from another user and are working hard on a fix. To make things right and sort this out quickly for you, could you shoot over any extra details to kyle@truewine.io? Thanks a bunch!

Too slow…

Too little information takes too long to reveal itself…
The excess button clicking, similar to the language apps, is quite annoying.
The timed tests are a nuisance. They disappeared when I sub’d, but resurfaced in the champagne section despite the sub. I ended up just buying the Wine Bible on kindle. Reading a thousand page book must be faster than clicking buttons and retaking timed-out tests (maybe I am slow!). It certainly contains more info.

Questionable questions

Training foe WSET level 2 and some of these questions are contrary to what’s in the book.

Noice

Me encanta!!!

Wine Lover, Love this App

I love learning about wine! Love this app!

Like Duolingo, but for wine

I’m studying for my level 1 sommelier certification and this app is very easy to use and the information is presented in a way that it’s very easy to absorb.

I showed the app to a level 3 sommelier and he told me he wished he had it when he first started studying for his level 1 certification.

Glitch in 2nd lesson

Your “Sweetness” lesson has a glitch in the “match” section

Trop cher

Tout est dans le titre.

Journey Begins

After years of passive intermittent wine glasses and starting to delve further, this course is like a map’s legend on your journey into enjoying and understanding wines.

Good but needs more content

Great app to learn!! I wish they had more content. There is nothing on Spain, Argentina, Chile, California, etc.

Dig it

Digging this app so far. Certainly didn’t know the first thing about reading a German label, but now have the fundamentals under my belt. As fun as playing a game and seriously educational at the same time.

Education

This app is amazing for learning on the phone. Thank you.

Learned a lot!

Dope app if you wanna learn wine.
