We make SipMarked. However, we link to each app's own site so you can check them out for yourself.
Vivino alternatives for keeping a private wine journal
Vivino shines at lookup and shopping. These options focus on your own tasting memory.
If you love Vivino for label scans and community averages, you may still want a separate place for private notes—especially where you drank a bottle and who shared it.
SipMarked is a private wine journal app for iPhone, Android and the web: scan a label, rate it, and remember where you drank it and who with.
Why people look for an alternative
- They want ratings that are personal, not crowd-driven
- They log restaurant and travel wines without a public profile
- They prefer invite-only groups over a social feed
Options to consider
- SipMarked — private journal, label scan, Vines for friends (full comparison)
- CellarTracker — if you need cellar inventory more than a simple journal
- Delectable — if you want social discovery instead of privacy
Use Vivino to look a wine up; use SipMarked to remember your own.
