The problem

Most bottles on the shelf are made in a factory.

Wine labels list almost nothing. Additives, processing aids, industrial shortcuts — none of it has to appear on the bottle. So the wine that leaves you with a headache looks identical to the one that doesn't. WINE A BEE was built to close that gap. Not a popularity contest of taste scores — a transparency tool that shows you how a wine was actually grown, harvested, and made.

Side effects come from chemicals — not from wine itself.

How it works

Shelf to glass, in four steps.

No account hoops, no fancy talk. The whole thing works in the aisle, on the spot.

01

Scan the shelf

Open the camera and pan across the bottles. WINE A BEE reads them all at once — even with no signal.

02

See every verdict

Green means Terroir: made with care, minimal intervention. Red means Techno: industrial, mass-market. A score sits on every bottle.

03

Pick your bottle

Filter by what you're eating, your budget, your palate. Tap any bottle for the full story behind the score.

04

Sip with confidence

No snobbery, no guesswork. Just the bottle you actually want, every time.

The verdict

Green or red. You'll know in a second.

Terroir

Made with care.

Grown and made with minimal intervention — the wine the label should be bragging about, if labels told the truth. Green is your green light.

Techno

Built for volume.

Industrial methods, mass-market production. There's a reason it's so cheap to make — and now there's a reason to think twice before you pour it.

Every verdict comes from how a wine is grown, harvested, made, and brought to market — weighed across six dimensions of real production. The method is ours. The result is yours.

The sommelier behind it

Dany Gagnon

WINE A BEE is built by Dany Gagnon — sommelier, viticulturist and oenologist with 45 years in wine, and more than 23,000 people taught to choose and taste it without intimidation.

He started in 1981, at fourteen, at his mother's side. He's spent his life making one argument: good wine should be welcoming, honest, and free of nonsense. This app is that argument, in your pocket.
