Wine Ratings

About Us

We strive to enhance our customers' wine drinking experiences by offering critical data of wines from around the world.

We are not affiliated with any particular winery nor a merchant.

As a result you should expect only the most reliable information on wine prices and ratings.

The market lacks the transparency in wine ratings and wine pricing. Wine producers and wine merchants know a great deal about them. On the other hand, the public in general has no way of knowing or determining the ratings and pricing on the spot, while buying wine at the store or over the net.

As a result, the wine merchant has an upper hand in these transactions and can induce the buyer into buying a low ranking wine or grossly overpriced wine. Often, we see wine bottles prominently for sale at a local store at say, $25 a bottle. A quick check shows that its ‘street price’ is only $8.

If the wine industry was regulated same way as, say, debt or equity markets, you would see a lot of wine dealers and wine merchants behind bars. Well, the industry is not regulated and you and I are taken to the cleaners every day.

This site is designed to even the playing field. Next time you buy a bottle of wine check WineRank on your cell or PDA for prices and wine ratings.

WineRank and Wines.mobile use a 100-Point Scale. Ratings, directly or indirectly, are based on chance and probability. There is a continuum of wines from exceptionally good to good, so-so, to just awful and vinegar. A scale that doesn’t incorporate these extremes simply doesn’t do justice to wine. As a matter of fact, even the best and the most expensive wines degrade with time and go to wine hell – the vinegars. Some wines take 100 years to get there, some are born that way.

To ignore the universe of wine ratings and to focus only on the upper part of the rating scheme is just plain wrong.

Wines.mobile is attempting to right the wrong. We give you real prices and a true 100-Point Wine Ratings Scale.

WineRank and Wines.mobile provide only an indication of a wine price.

Prices we show are mostly “street prices”, and you should expect the ‘real price’ to be anywhere from plus or minus $2 or $3 for an inexpensive wine and more for expensive wines.

If the retail price is way out of range that we indicate you should consider not buying it or go to another store.

Enjoy the wines and save a buck!
