Document the wines you have tasted or bought so that you always have an overview: - Which winery? - Which vintage? - Which variety? - What rating did you give it? - Where did you buy it? - How much do you still have in stock - Where did you taste it? - What notes did you make about the wine? - What photos do you have of it? With myWein, you have all this information centrally available and don't have to search through various documents. This also includes the central administration of the addresses of the wineries, sources of supply and tastings. myWein is also linked to our myEinkauf app, so you can immediately add a wine to your shopping list when your stock is running low. Do you also like to cook well? In conjunction with our myRecipes app, you can link your wines directly to the recipes as recommendations. Share your lists with family and friends by saving them in the iCloud or on your Dropbox, where you all have access.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Wine Tasting at none against myWein's shown. Wine Tasting also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 5 months) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
