Champagne, the favourite drink of many that instantly elevates any celebration, has a language of its own. From grape varieties to regions and vintages, choosing the right bottle can be pretty intimidating. But don't worry, as the world of wine and Champagne has embraced the digital age with open arms, offering a helping hand through apps.

Today, there is literally an app for everything imaginable, from live news and sports to all the latest games and streamed poker tournaments. So, is it any surprise that there are mobile apps to help us navigate the champagne world? These apps will be your discreet advisor, which will not only come in handy at the finest restaurants, but also perhaps help compliment your James Bond persona whilst enjoying an evening out playing your favourite casino games. So, grab a flute, and let’s embark on a journey into the sparkling world of Champagne.

Apps, Bubbles, and a Splash of Tech

Gone are the days of relying solely on recommendations, word of mouth, or the luck of the draw when it comes to picking the perfect bottle. Tech is ready to make your champagne selection process as smooth as possible.

Wine-Searcher

The Wine-Searcher app is your digital sommelier on demand. Whenever you're standing in the aisle, surrounded by a sea of bubbly possibilities. Wine-Searcher allows you to search and compare prices for over 5.5 million wines. It's like having a price-checker and information guru in your pocket. From grape variety to origin and price history, this app lets you know all there is to know about the bottle, helping you make an informed decision.

Vivino

You point your smartphone at a wine bottle, and like magic, Vivino scans it, unveiling a world of information. Vivino allows you to read others' tasting notes, offers food pairing suggestions, and even lets you order your favourite bottle right from your phone.

Living Wine Labels

For those who want a dash of technology and a sprinkle of magic, there's Living Wine Labels. If your bottle is AR-enabled, Living Wine Labels breathes life into the label, narrating the wine's backstory in a motion picture. This app transforms your sipping soirée into a captivating tale, proving that sometimes, the label is a story waiting to unfold.
