Wine tasting, or “tasting,” as it is called often in wine tasting circles, is an ancient practice. The methods involved in tasting these days have evolved over the years and the technology people use still don’t overrule the technique of look, smell, and taste. Apps can, however, be useful for new oenophiles who want to see what wines go best with what foods, where to find certain wines, and to track which wines a person has tried and liked or disliked. Check out our list of the best wine tasting apps for iPad.
