Tasting Notes for Professionals
Your tasting notes,
structured & searchable
Built around the CMS deductive tasting format. Create notes anywhere — even offline — and find them instantly. A professional tool for people who taste wine for a living.
Sound familiar?
Every sommelier deals with the same problems. We built SommApp to solve them.
Notes everywhere
Paper forms, phone notes, random apps — your tasting notes are scattered across a dozen places. Nothing is searchable.
Paper doesn't search
"What was that Burgundy I liked last year?" Paper can't answer that. Neither can a camera roll full of blurry tasting sheets.
Offline reality
Wine cellars, trade tastings, restaurant floors — connectivity is unreliable. Your note-taking tool shouldn't depend on it.
Features
Built for how sommeliers actually work
CMS Deductive Format
Not a generic notes app. Templates follow the Court of Master Sommeliers deductive tasting method — Sight, Nose, Palate, Initial Conclusion, Final Conclusion. The vocabulary, flow, and structure match how you already think.
- Red, White, Sparkling, Fortified, and Spirits templates
- Quick-pick buttons for common selections
- Custom vocabulary that learns your preferences
Tasting Rooms & Libraries
Collaborate in real-time during group tastings, study sessions, or team calibrations. Build curated libraries of notes for your wine program or study group — share them with your team or publish a simplified read-only version for staff.
- Real-time collaboration during group tastings
- Side-by-side note comparison (up to 4 wines)
- Build & share curated note libraries with your team
- Private fields stay private — share notes, not business info
Powerful Search & AI
Filter by grape, region, vintage, rating — or ask the AI to find "wines similar to this one." Full-text search across every note you've ever written. Your entire tasting history, instantly accessible.
- Smart filters: grape, region, country, vintage, rating, date
- AI similarity search using wine-specific embeddings
- Works offline — create and edit notes anywhere, sync later
Works Offline

Sync when you're back online.
Why SommApp
Built different
Most wine apps are built for consumers, classrooms, or social media.
SommApp is built for the people who actually pour the wine.
A professional tool, period
No public reviews, no crowdsourced ratings, no points or leaderboards. SommApp isn't a social network or a study game — it's built for people who taste wine for a living. Your notes are yours; share only what you choose, with who you choose. Pro includes quarterly data exports — your notes in plain text and JSON, always.
Fast, not overwhelming
Designed for the floor, the cellar, and the trade tasting — not a 45-minute classroom exercise. Quick-pick fields, smart defaults, get in and get out.
Affordable
Free to start, and Pro won't break the bank. Your note-taking app shouldn't cost more than a bottle of wine every month.
