Vivino alternative

A Vivino alternative – that teaches you wine too

Vivino is great at scanning labels and selling bottles. But if you want to learn wine, keep a cellar and skip the marketplace, there's an alternative: Cellary — a free wine app that puts knowledge and your own wines first.

When you want more than a database

Vivino's strength is its huge database and buying wine. Cellary's strength is helping you get better at wine: free courses, a real tasting protocol and a taste profile that learns what you like — without trying to sell you the next bottle.

What you get with Cellary

  • Log and rate wines in a social feed.
  • Build a digital cellar with drink windows.
  • Learn wine for free with courses and quizzes.
  • Ask the AI sommelier about food and wine.
