CellarTracker
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CellarTracker is a website that stores information about wines and wine collections. Created in 2003 by Eric LeVine, a former Microsoft program manager, the site says it is the "world's most complete wine database". As of May 2008, CellarTracker says it has more than 52,000 users, and entries for almost 9 million individual bottles.[1][2] On the site, users can track wines they have purchased and consumed, input tasting notes, value their collections, and share their information with others. CellarTracker is free to use, but donations are encouraged; in 2006 Levine predicted the site would gross $225,000 in revenue in 2007.[3][2] LeVine says that he designed CellarTracker to save wine collectors from having to enter the same information twice, which addressed a "fatal flaw" that he saw in other wine software utilities at the time.[4]
