SOMM DIGI:
The Next-Generation Platform
for Sommeliers and Wine Lovers
Hi, I'm Alper, the founder of SOMM DIGI. Thank you for taking the time to check us out!
I created SOMM DIGI as a solo entrepreneur with the goal of bringing new digital solutions, primarily AI-focused, to sommeliers and wine lovers around the world. My journey in the wine industry has taken me across many countries, where I’ve worked as a sommelier and head sommelier in various prestigious settings.
I hold the Advanced Sommelier certification from the Court of Master Sommeliers and a degree in Restaurant Management from Cornell University.
SOMM DIGI is my way of combining my passion for wine with innovative technology to support and inspire others in the industry.
What is SOMM DIGI?
SOMM DIGI is my U.S.-based startup, designed to reshape the way sommeliers and wine lovers engage with wine and technology.
It’s built around four key pillars, each reflecting my dedication to blending innovation with the world of wine:
SOMM DIGI AI
At the heart of SOMM DIGI is our advanced AI platform, powered by OpenAI and designed with a sommelier’s mindset.
Tailored for sommeliers, wine professionals, and wine lovers, it offers tools for studying wine, crafting wine lists, and preparing for sommelier exams with customized quizzes and flashcards. It makes learning and exploring wine faster, smarter, and more engaging.
E-Commerce - AMAZON
I continuously create and curate products for sommeliers and wine lovers, including wine openers, books, flashcards, and sommelier pins.
These items are available in my Amazon store, based in the U.S. with worldwide shipping, bringing high-quality and practical wine-related products to enthusiasts globally.
Digital Consultancy
SOMM DIGI also provides consultancy services for the wine industry.
From designing websites and managing social media to developing strategic partnerships, I help wine businesses build their digital presence, connect with their audience, and grow effectively in a competitive market.
Bianca: The First Wine AI Influencer
I’ve created Bianca, the world’s first AI wine influencer, to make wine culture more engaging and accessible. Bianca shares captivating content, promotes exclusive deals, and supports wineries by offering virtual vineyard tours, helping connect global audiences with the world of wine.
Mission Statement
My mission with SOMM DIGI is threefold. First, I aim to make the world of wine accessible and enjoyable for sommeliers and wine connoisseurs. I do this by sharing lifestyle-friendly and easy-to-understand wine resources and handpicking quality wine merchandise to enhance your experience. Second, I want to build a digital community where we can all learn, share, and celebrate the joys of wine. Lastly, I'm committed to helping wine companies connect with their ideal audience. By bringing together sommeliers, connoisseurs, and wine businesses, SOMM DIGI becomes a hub where everyone benefits.
