Three steps from the shelf to the counter.
-
Browse the shelf.
Every bottle in stock, filtered by colour, region, grape, price band or the food you're cooking. Search finds Côtes du Rhône even if you type "cotes".
-
Pick tonight's dish.
Choose from ten dishes, set a budget if you like, and get up to six bottles with the reasons they fit. The shop's own picks rank first.
-
Shortlist, then head to the counter.
Add bottles as you go, see the total, and print the list. Rate what you drank, and your notes are waiting next visit.
Try it with tonight's dinner.
This is the same rule the guide runs, on the shop's starter list of 24 wines.

Three bottles on the starter list pair with dessert. Staff can tag more.
A bottle pairs when it scores 3 or more: shop pick +3, colour suits the dish +2, body matches +1, sweetness matches +1. Shop picks come first, then price, then name.
Everything on the list.
-
Filters that narrow together Customers
Colour, region, grape, price band and food. Pick several in one group, and the groups combine.
-
Search that forgives Customers
Name, producer, region, country or grape. Accents and capitals don't matter.
-
A page for every bottle Customers
The shop's description, the grapes, body, sweetness, and the dishes it suits.
-
Pairings with reasons Customers
Up to six bottles per dish, ranked, with why each one fits and a budget to keep it honest.
-
Notes that stay Customers
Five stars and up to a thousand characters per wine, saved as you type, kept on this device.
-
A shortlist for the counter Customers
Add from any card, see the total, print a clean list with today's date.
-
Paper by day, cellar by night Customers
The guide follows the device's dark mode. No toggle to find.
-
A list the shop owns Staff
Add, edit, delete, mark out of stock. Export or import the whole list as JSON.
This is the guide. Go on.
Add a bottle to the shortlist, open Pairings, write a note. It is the app the shop runs, with the starter list.
Staff keep the list. Nobody needs IT.
Open the Staff link in the guide's footer. Add a wine with a form that says exactly which field is wrong. Flip a switch when a bottle sells out: it leaves the shelf view but keeps its page, so a customer's note on it stays put.
Export the whole list as a JSON file for a backup, import it on the shop tablet, or reset to the starter list after a bad day. An import with any problem is rejected and every problem is listed. The list only changes after you confirm.
There is no login. The admin screen is a quiet link, not a locked door, because this runs on the shop's own devices.
Plain facts
- No account.
- Open it and use it. There is nothing to sign up for.
- Nothing leaves the browser.
- Notes, the shortlist and the shop's list live on the device they were made on.
- Phone at the shelf, laptop at the counter.
- The same guide, with a tab bar on one and a sidebar on the other.
