A wine that is waiting on our sommeliers carries an In review badge — and you can use it straight away. The badge only means we have not finished filling in its data yet.
✅ You do not have to wait. The wine is already in your search results, you can add bottles of it, and you can edit its details yourself. The review changes nothing about your collection.
How long it takes
The badge's own explanation is the honest answer: in the coming weeks, our sommeliers will verify this label's data and add details like drink window, market value and structure notes.
There is no queue position to check, and submitting the same wine again does not move it up. A clear photo of the front label, or a link from one of the sites the submission form lists, is what makes a wine quick to work through.
What is waiting, and what is not
Waiting on the review | Yours right now |
The drink window we work out for the wine | Adding, moving and removing bottles of it |
Its market value | Vintage, quantity, storage, the price you paid, tags and notes |
Structure notes and the rest of the wine's profile | Your own drink window, ABV and market value, which override ours anyway |
Other people being able to find the wine | Reviews you write on it |
Search again before you wait
It is often a wine we already carry, spelled differently. Search for the producer and the wine without words like Domaine, Vineyard or Estate — every extra word narrows the search rather than widening it. If you find it, add your bottles from that entry and ignore the submission.
Where the badge appears
