For wine lovers
Not “buy this” — “buy this because.”

Other apps tell you what someone else thought about this wine. Coalescence starts from what you're doing tonight.
Cooking sea bass? We work backwards from the dish to the shelf. Just browsing? We start from what you feel like today and find you something worth discovering — based on what we know about your palate.
We only suggest wines this shop actually has on the shelf.
"I don't want to download another app."
You don't. It opens in your browser. Nothing to install, no account to make.
"I'll just get the same five mainstream wines."
Picks are drawn from the shop's whole shelf. The mainstream stuff is there; so is the Grüner you'd never have tried.
"I don't know enough to answer the questions."
There are no wrong answers. "Something crisp, with sea bass" is a perfect answer.
"What if I hate what it picks?"
Each pick comes with a pairing note that explains the match. Read it, choose something else — you're still ahead.
