What is the Systematic Approach to Tasting Wine?
The Systematic Approach to Tasting® (SAT) is a method of note taking developed by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust to make tasting notes more objective and comparable.
The methodology breaks down the evaluation of wine, spirits or sake into appearance, nose, palate and conclusion, supported by universal terminology.

The SAT is published at four progressive levels of difficulty in support of the four levels WSET qualifications available. This app has been built for wines at level two making it suitable for those who are new to the SAT method as well as those that have completed WSET courses.

A systematic approach to tasting provides wine tasters with a foundation on which to build and develop their skills. The SAT forms an integral part of all WSET courses.

Annoying

Well thats annoying I cant edit or draft my tastings. Headed to a group tasting and I want to input the wines were tasting so I don't have to pause to input all the basic wine info (that should be importable from vivino).

Amateurish

Keeps crashing when you try to type the primary nose marker that is not on the internal list but starts with a letter that is present on the internal list. The alcohol percentages are a silly drop-down with 0.5% increments so you have to cheat by copying and pasting them from Notes app No place to enter rim variation. No way to edit old entries. No way to set the tasting date, other than it auto sets to today.

Love it but needs a few tweaks

Love the logical progression. As others said should be able to edit. Starting to type certain aromas or flavors cause an immediate crash losing that wine and having to start over. Would be great to have producer also listed in main list. Would be great to remember producer and non-default grapes once entered for subsequent use. Thinking about taking a WSET course now though.

Great if basic tasting notes app

I hope some day they make the notes editable! It’s my main issue with the app. Other than that it’s a very useful tool.

Only for level 2

I love the app but I don’t understand why one could change the tasting level based the level the student is on.

Good app!

Good app but I wish it had the following features: -editing function after saving the tasting notes -copying function from the aromas to the flavors. -auto correct function when typing the tasting notes.

Would be better if it also included other drinks

I’m studying for my level 3 in Sake and it would be great if a template for Sake were provided along with one for spirits. It’s also a shame there is no way of storing a photograph of the label in the app.

Would like to see some further development

It’s fine for free but you could charge if... Needs: - Ability to photograph front and back of bottle - Ability to set the WSET level you want to taste at and add or subtract descriptors as needed. For example add Medium + to Acid at level 3. - Sync between devices - Auto look-up based on photo ala vivino - see others tasting notes for same wine to compare and calibrate pallet - references to level books based on the entered region and varietal I’ll come up with more!
