Apps keep wine drinkers a click away from latest info
By Chris Macias, Sacramento Bee
Dahlynn McKowen kept noticing the tapping in people’s palms when she visited wine tasting rooms around the Sierra Foothills and beyond.
Wine tasters, especially the younger ones, just couldn’t get enough of their smart phones – between sips.
McKowen knew it was time to develop a wine application for the iPhone and iPad.
Now, she has 13 Wine Wherever apps that are expected to be released this week. Each app covers a specific region of the United States, offering guides, maps, a tasting journal and other goodies for the plugged-in wine lover.
