Read full description

A simple wine cellar manager designed for manual entry and local-first ownership. ■ Detailed records per bottle Wine name, vintage, producer, country, region, grape variety, type, purchase date, purchase price, drink window, storage location, label photo, and notes. Previous values carry over as defaults, and history-based suggestions make data entry fast. Use "Duplicate to new" to quickly add another vintage of the same producer. ■ Consumption logs preserved forever Log the day you drank a bottle — past dates supported. Record 5-star ratings, tasting notes, food pairings, companions, and "buy again" flags. When a bottle count reaches zero, the log remains intact. Revisit the memory years later. ■ Multi-currency USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CNY, AUD, CAD, CHF, HKD, SGD, KRW — 11 currencies supported. Bottles bought abroad and bottles bought locally, all in one place. ■ Rich statistics Total bottles, total value, and a wine-type donut chart at the standard tier. Premium unlocks country distribution, vintage spread, drink-now alerts, and monthly consumption pace. ■ Your data is yours Export and import via CSV and JSON. Move to another device or keep periodic backups — all in your hands. ■ A quietly refined interface Serif typography and restrained colors turn daily cellar management into a small pleasure. 【Premium features】 - Unlimited bottles - Up to three photos per bottle - Detailed analytics (country map, vintage spread, drink-now alerts, monthly pace) - CSV and JSON export/import For home collectors with 50 to 500 bottles, and for enthusiasts tired of cloud-sync drama.
