A SUBSCRIPTION IS VALID FOR ONE YEAR AND INCLUDES ACCESS TO THE WEB-BASED GUIDE (WWW.WINEONAPLATTER.COM) Since 1980, Platter's hardcover book has been the winelover's essential guide to exploring the world of South African wine, including reviews of over 8,000 wines by a team of expert judges and key information about more than 900 wine producers.

A subscription allows access to the data for one year from date of subscription purchase, whereafter you will need to renew your subscription. 3. Occasionally there may be wines that are not in the database. Usually this is due to producer non-submission or wines not being ready for review by our tasters. You are welcome to email us to check. 4. Users of the web-based version of the guide (www.wineonaplatter.com) can log in to the app using their current Platter's username and password.

This updated version of the app is no thing like as good as it used to be. They seem to have made an interactive database very clunky. Having recently renewed my subscription (wow, that’s not cheap) the app has refused to acknowledge this - I have used my 5 free searches and can search no no more. I’ve logged on, logged off, uninstalled, reinstalled, restarted the phone, contacted support... all with no effect. Pleasingly I do have every copy of the book (back to 1999), so find myself using them instead of the app.

Clunky, hard to navigate, lacking information. Don’t bother.

New version is utter rubbish. Makes no sense. Also you’d have thought they’d have uploaded all wines by now. No such luck. Disappointing.

Poor user friendlyness. Quality not comparable to book version. Bad mix of product/producer information and other things like newsellters, etc. App crashes regularly and searches get lost. Urgent need to improve or going back to the old version.

Very disappointed. I’ve been using the previous version for years with great joy but was now forced to subscribe and pay for the 2020 version. Used up 5 free searches now I’m urged to subscribe!? What? Also, user interface not as good as previous version. Boschendal Elgin Chardonnay not even rated. Info on estates and producers very poor. I’ll not be recommending Platter App to friends any more like I used to.

Cant search, if i try, I’m stuck on that page. Can’t tap on any selections. Not really sure what they had in mind here? I really want to support the wine industry and platters, but this is a really poor effort. I agree with carmz above, even the webpage is a little disappointing. That at least works, but consumers need a little more info. We need tasting notes, a pic of the bottle. Not difficult to curate. Not just a score

I had the previous working version of the app. Since updating to the new one I am unable to do anything with it after signing in

I purchased this app as I thought it would contain as much information as the books do. When you out shopping and you want to see information and reviews on wine you just check the app instead of lugging a book around. For the amount of money this app costs - it’s a total rip off and does a great disservice to the wonderful reputation platters has. There is no valid information on the wines at all, except a name and a farm, really, Google does that job impeccably! I wish I could go to an app ombudsman to get my money back! This was hard earned money flushed down the drain.
