From the perfect pour to the subtle swirl, wine is good. Let's face facts...Americans love wine. Last year alone, U.S. wine consumption topped $36 billion which is more than any other country.

But if you don't know much about wine, it's hard not to have that deer-in-the-headlights look when a large wine list is placed in front of you.

Well, now there's an app for that! It's called WineGlass and it can read and explain almost any wine list, in any language.

Roddy Lindsay is a former Facebook engineer. He left that company to develop this app after spending years befuddled by bottles.

"For most of us, we sit down and we don't really know what we're doing," Lindsay said. "When I look at a wine list, my eyes would glaze over."

The app uses optical-character recognition to read the text on menus and compare it to an international wine database with details on more than one million different bottles.

So, now for only five dollars, you can be the wine connoisseur you thought you'd never be!
