WineTone

A Pantone for wine — but it calibrates to you.

A wine recommender that learns your vocabulary

Sign in, label five-ish wines you've tried in your own words, and WineTone will fit a projection that calibrates the whole catalog to how you talk about wine. Ask for recommendations in plain English and watch the results shift.

How it works

  1. Sign in with email, Google, or GitHub. Your labels live under your real (Clerk-managed) account, so usernames are unique and only you can edit your own profile.
  2. Label 5+ wines you've tried — search the catalog by producer, region, or grape, then describe each in whatever words make sense to you.
  3. WineTone fits a personal projection from your vocabulary into the catalog's embedding space. Running on PyTorch CPU. ~milliseconds to fit.
  4. Ask for a wine in your own words. The same query that returns generic results before calibration shifts to wines that match your meaning of the words after.
