About us

Why we do what we do
Our main driver is that we know we can make a difference for wine consumers, restaurants, hotels, wine merchants, and wine producers globally.
Our passion is to offer consumers better wine experiences that create added value for our business customers. We do this by being attentive, open-minded, courageous, creative, and solution oriented.
We have made a commitment to offer services and products that will offer improved quality of life, create memorable wine and dine moments for wine consumers and improved social, financial, and environmental sustainability for all parts of the wine trade.
We must lead by example, via thought leadership, transparency, and authenticity.
We will become leaders in our industry because we all believe in the WHY, what we do and the products and services we offer.
It can be a daunting task to choose wine in a restaurant or supermarket to match the dish you are having. We have taken the experience of wine makers & sommeliers and boiled it down through some complex algorithms to make it super simple and easy to create perfect matches between food and wine.
Along the way we have also created an unparalleled system for Wine Producers, Wine Merchants and Restaurants that helps them to increase revenues, data availability and profits.
What sets us apart from others
We don’t sell wine – we do everything we can to help our customers increase wine revenues.
We don’t market wine – we present wine in the most favourable way to the most relevant consumer. To everyone, everywhere, any time.
Our promises
We promise that users of the Wineally app will get better wine & dine experiences.
We promise to loyally support our business customers and never sell wine or demand commissions.
We promise to continuously develop new products and services for our customers and to contribute to the wine trade in every way we can.
