Join the club. Short lessons, a glass in your hand and a place for every bottle worth remembering. That’s how you find out what you like, with your friends.
Wine is full of rules and difficult words. Not here.
All you need is curiosity.
A few ideas every day. A grape to get to know, or a bottle a friend just found.
Lessons of a few minutes, about things you’ll actually use: choosing a bottle, finding your way around a wine list, saying what you taste. Wrong is fine, you just try again.
Grab your glass. What do you smell, and is it fresh or full? Soon you’ll be able to say why you like it. Give the wheel a try.
Snap the label and note what you thought. Next year you’ll still know which bottle it was.
BottleClub is free. To learn without limits and keep every bottle, there’s Plus.
Start discovering.
For when you want more.
Plus is a subscription inside the app, through the App Store or Google Play, and you can stop any time. Everything you learned and every bottle you kept stays yours.
An app to get to know wine the way you would with friends: short lessons, tasting with a glass in your hand, and a cellar for the bottles you liked. Step by step, you find out what you like.
A bit. Like Duolingo, you learn in short lessons of a few minutes, with something to tap and a question or two. But wine is also about tasting: BottleClub walks you through your own glass and remembers what you thought of it. BottleClub is an app of its own and isn’t connected to Duolingo.
No. You start where you are: if you already know a thing or two, you skip what you know. Words like tannins and acidity are simply explained.
Yes. For free you can learn every day with 20 energy (about 4 lessons), keep up to 50 wines in your cellar and taste as much as you like. BottleClub Plus lets you learn without limits and keep every bottle, without ads.
A lesson takes a few minutes: one idea, something to tap and a few questions. Wrong isn’t a problem: you see straight away why, and have another go. Each chapter ends with a short wrap-up.
Yes. Add friends by their username. You decide what you share with them; your tasting notes stay yours unless you choose to share them.
No. You learn more from one glass with attention than from a whole bottle. Many lessons don’t need a glass at all, and tasting is about noticing, not about how much.
BottleClub is in the App Store, for iPhone. Android comes later: leave your email on this page and we’ll email you once, as soon as it’s on Google Play.
Dutch and English. You can switch in the app whenever you like.
We keep only what the app needs to work, we sell nothing, and this website doesn’t track you. It’s all in our privacy statement.
