About Winepedia

Winepedia is a web-based, free content source for wine lovers. The name Winepedia is a fusion of the words wine and encyclopedia.

Winepedia features a growing collection of articles on wine, wine making, history of wine, vineyards, grapes and just about everything related to wine. Most of the articles are written collaboratively by volunteers from all around the world.

Visitors need not possess any special qualifications to contribute; this means that people of all ages and cultural background can write Winepedia articles. Wine enthusiasts may share their stories, articles and experiences, provided they are related to wine.

Winepedia has advantages over traditional books on wine. Winepedia has a very low "publishing" cost for adding or modifying entries. It has a near zilch environmental impact, since it need never be printed. Additionally, the editorial cycle is short. A book stays the same until the next edition, whereas writers update Winepedia at every instant, around the clock, ensuring that it stays abreast of the most recent events and news from the wine world. So now you may read wine while you drink it!
