Does a cherry aroma necessarily mean that it is pinot noir?
Why does my white wine have hints of pineapple? Which grape varieties have pineapple aromas? Where do the yeast notes in my champagne come from?
Many curious tasters may be asking themselves all these questions and certainly want answers. It is on the basis of this observation and with a view to providing as many answers as possible to all tasters that VINONIA was conceived and developed.
VINONIA is the first wine app that allows tasters to approach wine through grape varieties and aromas. Thanks to an interconnection of more than 140 aromas and more than 550 grape varieties, tasting takes on a whole new meaning. The application will help you to understand the particularities of the different grape varieties and to recognise them through their aromatic expression but also technical expression, such as acidity, body, tannin - and consequently to understand wine.
VINONIA is available in 5 languages in iOs format in the AppStore and Android in the Google Play Store.
Novice, enthusiast, connoisseur or expert — where do you really stand? Find out on VINONIA! For anyone preparing for WSET certifications, the quiz was built to follow the official syllabuses: an ideal tool for learning and revising efficiently.
Explore each variety through its aromatic expressions, its favourite terroirs and its role in blends. The aromas — cherry, liquorice, acacia, butter… — are classified by variety, appellation and family (red fruits, citrus, floral…), as well as by type: primary, secondary or tertiary.
Every appellation is presented clearly and concisely: permitted grape varieties, date of creation, ageing methods, terroir and the influence of climate on the wine. Great names such as Romanée-Conti and Petrus sit alongside confidential appellations like Château Grillet, Santorini or Bellet. And to help you find your way through this universe, VINONIA offers detailed wine maps from around the world. With interactive regional maps, you can easily locate any appellation and instantly access further information. VINONIA is in fact the only wine app to offer interactive maps paired with detailed appellation profiles on a global scale.
