### 3/5 — Standardwerke

*2025-04-14*

Es fehlt leider eine Kategorie mit allen anderen Ländern, sowie Ungarn, die ebenfalls viel Weinanbau betreiben.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für das Feedback. 
Aus zeitlichen und finanziellen Gründen konzentrieren wir uns derzeit auf 13 Weinbauländer, die im Apple Store und auch in der kostenlosen Testversion aufgelistet sind.
Unser Wissen über ungarische Weine beschränkt sich hauptsächlich auf den wunderbaren Tokajer, aber das reicht nicht aus, um den Weinen dieses Landes in der App gerecht zu werden.

### 1/5 — Beaucoup de manque

*2025-02-07*

Bien trop de vins sur lesquels ils ont fait l’impasse.
Pour exemple, pas un mot sur les vins de Corse 
Je regrette d’avoir payé pour cette application

**Developer response:** Nous n'avons pas la prétention d'inclure toutes les régions viticoles, car pour cela, l'application devrait coûter bien plus cher qu'un verre de vin. Rien que pour la France, 320 régions viticoles sont représentées, ce qu'aucune autre application ne propose. 
De plus, il n'est pas nécessaire d'acheter l'application pour voir si ses régions préférées y sont ou non. Cette fonctionnalité est déjà disponible dans l'application d'essai gratuite ( !), que l'on peut également supprimer immédiatement si l'on n'est pas intéressé par d'autres vins.
Quant à savoir si une note de 1 étoile pour une région manquante dans une application de test gratuite est juste, c'est à chacun de se débrouiller avec sa conscience. 
Santé au verre à moitié plein (et non à moitié vide) !

### 5/5 — Super Aufbau

*2024-12-14*

Es sind alle Grundlegenden wichtigen Aspekte hinterlegt was Anbaugebiet und Rebsorten betrifft.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank!

### 5/5 — Hervorragend

*2024-07-15*

Ein zuverlässiger Helfer um einen guten Wein zu finden.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank!

### 1/5 — Wenig Informationen

*2021-04-07*

Die App enthält wenig Informationen zu den einzelnen Stichworten. Bestenfalls als sehr grobe Übersicht zu gebrauchen.

### 5/5 — Gut!

*2020-07-07*

Mittlerweile wieder Updates. App bietet einen sehr guten Überblick.

### 2/5 — Intérêt limité

*2019-06-08*

Application bien trop succincte.

### 5/5 — Panorama unique

*2016-03-10*

C'est trop génial d'avoir quelques grands traits de caractère des vins du monde. Très utile en voyage car à l'étranger on trouve une offre bien plus large de vins du monde qu'en France.

### 1/5 — Warum kein Update

*2015-12-27*

Seit 2012 wurden die App nicht aktualisiert. Warum?

### 1/5 — 100% waste

*2014-05-18*

There is absolutely nothing on this app that you can't find just as quickly with a quick search via internet. 
Don't waste your time, let alone money.
