WithWine

We provide wineries with a desktop website where they can upload and manage information about their wines. This information is displayed to wine drinkers via the WithWine app, available on the App Store. People, wines and wine brands have profiles which can be viewed and followed by app users. When I buy, am I buying from WithWine or someone else? You are buying direct from the winery, not from WithWine. We just facilitate the transaction and pass the order on to the winery. Are all wines on WithWine? The WithWine app will only work if the winery has uploaded their details into the system so if your favourite wine isn't on there, you should let the winery know! If you see the WithWine sign you can scan the wine. Some people think it's better to have something that works 10% of the time for 100% of the people. We think it's better to have something that works 100% of the time for 10% of the people. We're starting small but you're going to see more and more wines added every day. Who is behind WithWine?
