Add a Bottle

Your Cellar

Your cellar is empty

Add your first bottle above to get started. Try one of the sample wines below if you want to see how it works.

How This Works

Adding Wines

Fill in the name, vintage, and varietal. The rest is optional but helps you remember where you bought it and what you paid. The drinking window estimate appears as soon as you add the bottle.

Drinking Windows

Each varietal has a typical aging range. A young Nebbiolo might need 10 years, while a basic Rosé is best within 2 years. These are general guidelines. Your storage conditions and personal taste matter more than any estimate.

Tasting Notes

Click any bottle to open its detail panel. Add notes after you taste it. Over time you build a personal record of what you liked and why. This is the part that makes the tracker worth coming back to.

Pairing Suggestions

Each varietal comes with common food pairings. These are starting points, not rules. Use them when you are stuck for dinner ideas or planning a tasting night.

Data Stays Local

Everything saves in your browser. No account, no server, no tracking. Export your data as JSON anytime for backup. Import it on another device to keep going.

Common Mistakes

Do not rely only on the drinking window. Open a bottle when you feel like it. Also, update the quantity when you drink one. Many people forget and end up with ghost bottles in their list.
