Wine Talk launches the mobile app you need

Find wines, beer, ciders, whiskeys and more with simple snap of labels.

Did you ever enjoy a fantastic wine one evening and forget what it was the next day? Did you like a bottle so much but then couldn’t find it in the shops? Have you had many varieties of wine but still couldn’t tell what type you like the most? Are you looking for information about a wine label before deciding to buy? Would you like to know more about what wines your friends like to drink?

If you drink wine, these are just some of the many questions or experiences you might have encountered. I’m not a certified wine or alcohol expert but I can relate to all of these. On many instances, I’ve come across a really great bottle of wine but have a hard time looking for it in the shops. And, yes, there are times when I can’t remember the label I’ve had. I can’t even read those French labels!

For many wine beginners, identifying what you like to drink from thousands of wine types, from Sauvignon Blanc to Grenache to Merlot, can be daunting. White wine alone has thousands of types, how can you possibly tell what you like, even after trying 10, 20, 30 or more?

Food just tastes even better when enjoyed together with wine. Wouldn't it be great if we can remember the wine we've had?

For those who have been drinking wine for longer and have better understanding of what they like, a challenge is still organising the wines you like and shopping for them. Where to find that life-changing bottle of Chardonnay or that mesmerising bottle of Chianti? 

I’ve heard so many challenges from wine lovers I’ve met in the past 4 years. But here’s great news. 

Wine Talk, known for its online shopping site www.winetalk.com.my now has a free mobile app that solves all or most of your wine problems. You won’t forget the wines you like anymore. You can now find and shop for wines then get them delivered to your home, office or event venue. You can now build and identify your taste profile. You can now simply snap a label and see information. You now have 1 solution to have a more enjoyable lifestyle with wine using Wine Talk’s mobile app. 

What makes this app even better is the social feature. Think of it like the Facebook of Wine. Here you can review a bottle that you had or like and share it among a community of people who enjoy wine. Of course, you can do this in Facebook, too, but the difference here is you’re speaking to a community with similar interest. You’ll even discover some interesting wines to try based on what other people reviewed and rated! This is very helpful in wine discovery!

What the Wine Talk mobile app does:

1. Scan labels of wines, beers, ciders, whiskeys, vodka and more to see more information
2. Build your personal virtual cellar where you keep info of your favourites
3. Discover your personal taste profile
4. Review products
5. Share your reviews in the app’s social feature 
6. Connect with other wine lovers 
7. Shop (by the way, they’re having a deal worth RM35 OFF on first purchase of RM150 using the app, use code WTAPP)

But enough said. The best way to understand is to experience the app. You can download the app for free from the Play Store (for Android users) and the App Store (for iOS users). Click here to download the app: http://onelink.to/w58y8vwt or scan the QR code with your mobile QR scanner app. 

Here’s a short video for you to see some of the features. Time to scan, build my profile, share and shop for my favorite wines and cider!

The Wine Talk app was created with the aim of allowing users to always remember a good bottle. Its development is aimed towards building a community of wine enthusiasts who can chat and share wines while keeping track of their personal favourites with various features of functions. 

The Wine Talk app focuses on four main functions: scan, share, social and shop. The app comes with a built-in scanner that allows users to scan the label of a wine they enjoy and instantly get all the information available; including ratings, price and availability. Should the wine image not be listed, app users can add the image and eventually create a database of every wine available. The social aspect of the app will allow users to communicate with others and share their favourite wines, get opinions, food pairings, provide tasting notes, compare palates and simply discuss anything and everything about all alcohol beverages. 

With a sophisticated platform and technology, the app features a cellar that captures your wine drinking preference and builds a taste profile based on how well you’ve rated wines in the database. With rated 3 stars and above and the ones you mark as a favorite, data is captured to create an easy-to-read wine profile that will help you understand your personal wine drinking style. This will act as a guide to help you pick out wines and eliminate confusion or difficulties that many wine drinkers face when it comes to purchasing wine in a store. 

If you’ve found something you like, the Wine Talk app is connected to the web store and will allow you to make quick and easy purchases while enjoying all the same benefits of the webpage with a few extras. Users across Malaysia (East Malaysia included) can place their orders with a few taps for doorstep delivery while those within Klang Valley can enjoy extra fast delivery using the 3 hour or same day delivery service. This is especially great for users who want a good bottle of liquid happiness minus the hassle to obtain it.
