DESCRIPTION
Taste Now--Remember Later!
(NOTICE: this new combined app is now available for $1.99. The original 13 individual regional Wine Wherever apps do not possess several of the features listed below. They will be removed from the app store as soon as the new combined app is available.)
The new release combines 13 existing regional Wine Wherever apps--featuring nearly 2,000 wineries and hosting an array of journaling, mapping and coupon features--into a single app covering the most popular wine regions in the United States.

Then continue to reference your old app's journals until you can transfer them to the new app.
The Wine Wherever app has received great reviews from major magazines and daily newspapers, broadcast media and on-line venues including Sunset Magazine, LA Weekly, thedrinknation.com and Mashable.com.
