See how it works

Sound familiar?

Learning to taste is hard. Keeping your notes shouldn't be.

Notes everywhere.

A notebook in class, your phone at a tasting, the back of a menu at dinner. None of it in one place.

No way to look back.

You tasted a Barolo in week two. Finding that note before the exam means flipping through pages.

Facts you have to look up.

Grape, region, vintage, style. Filling in the basics eats the time you should spend tasting.

Your notes, plus a sommelier who has read them.

Sommly fills in the facts from the label, so you focus on what's in the glass. Then ask questions about any wine you've logged. Answers come from your own notes, not a textbook.

Sommly sommelier

How did my notes on the two Rieslings compare?

You scored the Mosel higher on acidity and found more petrol on the Clare Valley. You also rated the Mosel's finish longer.

Example conversation

How it works.

From the glass in front of you to a searchable tasting archive.

01

Snap the label.

Grape, region, vintage and style fill in by themselves, usually within a minute.

02

Write the structured note.

Appearance, nose, palate and conclusion, laid out the way you're learning to taste.

03

Build your archive.

Every wine you taste is saved and searchable by grape, region or your own words.

04

Ask about it.

Ask your sommelier about anything you've logged. It answers from your notes.

Built for how you study.

Structured where it matters, quick where it doesn't.

Structured tasting notes

A full note form: appearance, nose, palate, conclusion. Set it as your default.

Quick mode too

Out with friends? Stars and a few tags, then a full note when you're back at a desk.

Label scanning

One photo fills in grape, region and vintage, so you write about the wine, not the facts.

Searchable archive

Every wine from class, tastings and dinners, in one place.

Your palate, over time

See which styles and regions you taste most and how you rate them.

AI sommelier

Ask about any wine you've logged and get answers built on your own notes.

Who it's for

For anyone who tastes with a structure.

Whether you're in Level 1, preparing for Level 3, or simply want to taste more deliberately, Sommly gives every glass a proper note and keeps it where you can find it.

Why I'm building this.

Learning to taste properly needs notes you can come back to, with the facts already filled in. I couldn't find one place that did that, so I built it. It's early, and I read every message. Tell me what would make it better for studying.
