Platter's Wine Guide 3.0.5

Platter's by Diners Club Wine Guide 2024 offers an extensive resource for those interested in South African wine, encapsulating decades of expertise since its inception in 1980. The guide has remained a staple for wine enthusiasts, providing reviews of over 8,000 wines evaluated by a team of expert judges, alongside vital information about more than 900 wine producers.

The app serves as a portable extension of this tradition, offering users timely access to updated wine descriptions and ratings, as well as practical winelands travel information. Please note that while the app is free to download, a paid subscription is required for ongoing access to Platter's data. This subscription is valid for one year and includes access to the accompanying web-based guide at www.wineonaplatter.com.

Key considerations for potential users include:

1. The app has been optimized for the latest phone software versions; users with earlier versions may encounter limitations in functionality.
2. Annual updates to the app data coincide with the launch of the new printed guide. Subscriptions are effective for one year from purchase, requiring renewal thereafter.
3. There may be instances where certain wines are not listed in the database, often due to producers not submitting samples or wines awaiting review. Users are encouraged to reach out via email for confirmations.
4. Existing users of the web-based guide can log into the app using their current Platter's username and password.

The app boasts a variety of features designed to enhance the user experience:

• Access to wine descriptions and ratings from both the latest edition (2022) and all reviews dating back to 2008.
