I wanted a way to track what's in my wine racks without a spreadsheet, so I built a custom HA integration for it. Figured I'd share since there wasn't really anything out there like this.

You get a visual grid of your wine racks with color-coded bottles, label thumbnails, and Drink/Hold/Past Peak badges. Stats bar at the top shows bottle count, capacity, and total value.

The part I'm most happy with is the label scanning. You take a photo of a wine label and Google Gemini identifies the wine, gives you a full sommelier-style breakdown (vintage, region, grape, drink window, estimated price, critic rating estimates), and then auto-pulls ratings and market pricing from Vivino in the background. One scan does everything.

There's also batch buttons to run AI analysis or Vivino refresh across your whole cellar at once, which is handy when you first add a bunch of bottles.

Other stuff:

Drag and drop to rearrange bottles on desktop, long-press to move on mobile Half-star rating widget and tasting notes Barcode scanning via camera Search and filter by type, name, winery, region Configurable rack layouts with named storage zones HA sensors for automations (bottle count, capacity, etc.) It's a HACS custom repo, free Gemini API key for the AI features, everything runs locally except the Gemini and Vivino calls.
