HOW IT WORKS 1. Scan: photograph the wine list and, if you like, the menu. Long list? Capture each page and palate reads them together. 2. Match: tell palate what you're eating and what you'd like to spend. It combines classic food and wine pairing with your own taste. 3. Choose: get three picks, each explaining why it suits you and how it goes with your food. 4. Remember: save the wines you enjoy, rate them and add your own notes. Loved one? Find it online and buy a bottle. YOUR WINE PROFILE Take a short quiz and palate builds your wine profile. Every wine you rate makes your recommendations sharper. YOUR WINE HISTORY Every scan and saved wine in one place, with a world map that fills in as you discover new regions. FREE TO USE palate is free to download, with 3 scans a month, three picks per scan, your wine history and the Essentials quiz.
