See my thoughts on the evolution of the relationship between restaurants wine in Wine, restaurants' lifeblood.
Digital restaurant wine lists inspire strong feelings, both pro and anti, as can be seen in this thread on our Members' forum.
In my experience, iPad wine lists vary in their beauty, accuracy and usefulness every bit as much as paper lists, but there is surely no doubt that they are here to stay – not least because they can offer so much information and ways of sorting it.
Over the last week or so I have been asking for recommended iPad wine lists and the list below is the result. If you have any more names to suggest. please do so via the Comments box below – although I would expect a similar list compiled in a year's time to be much, much longer.
