Wine Tutor vs Vino Wine

Wine Tutor will teach you how to tell what wine you are drinking, understand the differences and learn your preferences. You’ll can distinguish merlot and shiraz, pinot noir from France and California, and young and 7-year-old Rieslings. How? Wine Tutor replaces our book format diaries of tasted wines with an intuitive tool that you can access at all times (if your phone is charged). If you feel lost, Wine Tutor will be there for you and suggest most common aromas for the wine in your glass–we call it Global Data. Wine Tutor will ask you to input basic data from the wine label. Since everyone has unique ‘tasting potential’ and will find his unique mix of aromas, the application learns its owner’s specific profile and can serve as a prompter in the future tastings once the same wine variety / wine region / vintage combination occurs. We call it My Data. “It is perfectly normal for perceptions to differ from one person to another. We ourselves are the only ones who are experts in our own perceptions-if we see red as red/brown and smell Chardonnay as grapefruit when others experience apricot, lime or melon, then these are our personal judgments. (…) If there was one common taste, there would be but one common wine.” Alan Young Thanks to a simple preference algorithm running in the background, Wine Tutor will allow you to understand which wine varieties / wine regions / vintages you prefer and why. We have included 4 most common red wine varieties (Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Pinot Noir) as well as 4 red ones (Chardonnay, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and Gewurztraminer). For now, we believe these 8 should learn how to recognize them and distinguish them from the other grape varieties that we will continue to add. Our excitement has reached cosmic levels because of the way the application aided the testing team in the learning process. Wine Tutor acts like a real professional teacher or coach: first by asking the student to try by himself, followed by providing relevant prompts, all in aspirations that he will be knowledgeable enough in a few dozens of tastings. This is for now. Next versions will be available soon and will contain price / performance statistics, vintages’ evaluations, social component and suggestions for future. “Humans find it extremely difficult to either remember smells or to name those that are remembered. (…) In two recent studies, it was found that even wone experts were no more skilled at naming familiar odours than were people ‘of the street’. Where the wine buffs excelled, however, was in remembering which odours they had already smelled. (…) This is due to the practice the experts have had while they have been training their noses” Alan Young. We believe that by using our little application, you can train your nose exactly as described by Alan Young. You may need to expand your base of aromas by regularly smelling various items: go into the spices section in your market and smell liquorice or go into the garden and smell blackcurrant leaves. You may also use the set containing many aromas enclosed in little bottles. “This work completely altered our perception of ‘wine as a drink’ and introduced the idea of ‘wine for pleasure’: wine lovers discovered the delights of apricot, quince, cherry, honey, peach and acacia flower…suddenly the description had become crystal clear.” Jean Lenoir It’s a never ending adventure in awaking your olfactory senses.
