Wine Sediments

My weekly post at the Wine Sediments portion of the Well Fed Network can be found here.

In this week’s post, I do a round-up of four online cellar management  web sites—logabottle, winelog.net, corkd.com and cellartracker.com

This isn’t a comprehensive list, as others surely exist, but a site of this nature is at the center of the future community aspect of wine and tasting notes online.

Cellartracker is the oldest and most mature, but Cork’d is an up and comer with a younger sensibility.

I suspect, though, for most people, these inventory sites aren’t critical—given that 98% of wine is drunk young, within a year or two of its release.

So, the real value is in the tasting notes and peer recommendations ala reviews like Amazon.com.

Read the post and comment on whether you think these sites hold value for management or cellar organization—or, if folks just like to get validation on their own palate.
