If you are a wine lover and looking for a fun way to test your knowledge - this app is for you!
Simply tap the screen where you think each wine should be placed, zoom in and release to confirm when you are happy with your selection.
You will be presented with a number of levels increasing in complexity to test your knowledge of wine and where it is produced around the world.
There is a time limit per level, with ten wines to try and place correctly.
The levels you will be faced with ask you to decide which country, region or sub-region the wine comes from.
The app features additional information on all the regions and grape varieties you have been faced with placing in the game, so as well as testing your knowledge, you can extend it! There are direct links back to the WSET website for more information on all the qualifications WSET offers worldwide.
Have fun and good luck!

Great memorization tool!
NapaSaraB
This game has been a fabulous tool to reinforce/remind me of things I learned years ago. It has allowed me to recall information I wasn’t sure was still lodged in my brain! I’m excited to brush up & continue my wine education now.
Love it, but it needs some tweaking

This is a really fun and very effective way to memorize exact locations of wine regions. A few tweaks would be helpful. For example it would be nice if the name of the region was in a dark color instead of a light color because it sometimes takes me a few seconds to be able to read the name. Another tweak would be for the map to reset to the world view after each wine. That way I wouldn’t have to tap out before I could tap in again. Finally it would be nice at the end of the round to be able to see what the right regions were for the ones I got wrong. Although admittedly, after playing the game enough, I eventually figured it out on my own. Overall, I am extremely happy with this app.
Love the concept, just not how it works

I love the game as a whole. Huge suggestions: It needs to have the option of not being timed, and it needs to stop repeatedly asking me the questions I’ve long mastered. The world map should get to the region faster and more efficiently when I’m narrowing down my answer.
Basic app with lots of potential

Great app for learning the basic regions. Fast-paced and will definitely help with memorization. Would be helpful if a map with the region/subregion is located in the review notes. Also, it would be nice to include the information of the last option when the timer runs out along with the in/correct ones. Would love to see this app add on the next level to include notes about the wines.
Thirsty for MORE!

So much fun- I only wish for more! A fabulously fun, fast-paced game, and a great learning tool. My only reason not to give 5 stars is I was sad to find it was over after 6 levels!! I hope it will be updated often and offer more challenges for advanced students! Thank you, WSET!
Maps & labels unreadable
Gmrobertspar
Unfortunately the when matching the labels to maps it difficult to move and increase map size for greater detail. Also, the labels are very difficult to read
Good; could be great

How about a pinch to zoom instead of the clumsy map zoom function? And an iPad version would make this much easier to use instead of squinting at it. Can't wait for an updated version.
