What's new

Quiz training now offers three new ways to practise:

• Mixed Challenge combines different question formats into one varied round.
• Profile Check asks you to verify a wine region, its map location, and its grape profile together.
• Map Challenge lets you locate and match wine regions on an interactive map.

Austria leads the way: get to know Lower Austria, Burgenland, Styria, and Vienna. In selected regions, you can then go one level deeper and explore individual DAC areas.

Wine Companion now has a dedicated, bilingual changelog that makes new features and meaningful improvements easier to discover.

White grapes do not have to make pale, delicate wine. Leave their juice with the skins and a different set of possibilities appears: deeper colour, more texture, and sometimes a gentle tannic grip.

“Red with meat, white with fish” is easy to remember and easy to outgrow. A better approach is to notice a few forces in the glass and on the plate, then decide whether you want harmony or contrast.
