The spacing is annoying
Angielogo
The information is good, but limiting the number of questions per unit of time is very annoying. Please provide the option to shut that off. I subscribed but won’t renew if you don’t. Otherwise its a very good app.
Absolutely phenomenal

If your learning wine for pleasure or an exam, this is a terrific and enjoyable resource. Cheers!
Don’t waste your time or $$$

I thought this would be a fun app, but after I noticed that the same 15-20 questions were asked repeatedly about 50 times (not kidding) over a few days and 1 new question was released each day, I realized it would be years to get through the questions in the app. Really a worthless app.
$6.99 - seriously?

You’re not trying to educate wine enthusiasts to help increase wine sales, you’re just trying to make a buck; or 99-cents in this case. I’m in the wine industry, I’d love to recommend this app to retail customers, but not when most of the modules cost 99-cents.
Great knowledge

I’ve been glued to this app for the past three days and am loving it. The questions progress at a slow pace but that gives you lots of time to run the answers through your head enough to get the answer right when it next pops up. The questions are varied and delve deeper than general knowledge. I’m looking forward to Spain and California being added to the lineup of modules.

In regards to incorrect answers, unless I’m missing something Champagne is not the only region where it is legal to blend red and white wines to make a rose’. It may be frowned upon, but it is not illegal.
Great app

I enjoyed using this while studying for the CMS Certified exam. I hope they will add Spain, Germany, Portugal, and New Zealand in the future. My only quibble is that once you’ve answered ~75% of the questions the quiz takes a long time to queue up 5 questions since there aren’t as many left. (Also: Made it to the end, and when only one question is left, it won't let you say "correct" - it marks it wrong so you can't finish and get to 100% - not cool!)
Incredible

Love how it forces you to stop studying for a while so your not just memorizing but truly learning and remembering. Depth of questions is pretty good so far. Nice app!
Acts strangely

Fun little app, but it poses the same questions over and over and the updating is odd. It will download for two minutes, then ask me one or two questions it has asked already and then go back to downloading. Ultimately gets annoying and you give up. I’d pay a reasonable price (not 0.99 per module) for something that works properly.
