2022, October 18 – Say goodbye to the days of balancing wine glasses, pens, and dense tasting books at wine tasting events. Skurnik Wines & Spirits is bringing the wine industry into the 21st century with the launch of an innovative new Digital Tasting Book – freeing up hands and saving some trees in the process. Available on all smartphones, tablets, and laptops, wine tasting has never been easier. Features of the Digital Tasting Book include a detailed map of the event, a comprehensive list of the wines & spirits available at each table, a wealth of product information, a search and filter function, and the ability to write notes and create lists of your favorite wines to review post-tasting.
In recent years, the wine industry has seen an unprecedented growth in technological advancements as winemakers, importers, distributors, and other industry players adapt to the evolving digital landscape. Much like the efforts of winemakers to improve their processes to be more sustainable and environmentally friendly, the industry is trending towards a more modern approach to the way we make, sell, and enjoy wine.
Skurnik Wines & Spirits has emerged as a leader in the digital sphere with the launch of their new Digital Tasting Book, in addition to initiatives to improve the accessibility and ease of buying and selling their wines, including the digitization of many customer actions (such as paying bills, or submitting an application to become a customer) and the highly-detailed content available on their website, such as blog posts, photo/video content, and interviews with producers.
Moving forward, the Digital Tasting Book will replace printed tasting books at Skurnik’s in-person events, large and small. Join one of these upcoming trade events for an opportunity to try it out:
