Authenticate Every Bottle of Wine & Spirits
Counterfeit alcohol is a multi-billion-dollar global problem threatening consumer safety and premium brand value. TAGBASE provides bottle-level NFC authentication that proves provenance and detects tampering — with a single tap.
Challenges Facing the Wine & Spirits Industry
Premium beverages are among the most counterfeited products globally, with fraud undermining brand integrity and posing serious health risks.
Counterfeit & Refilled Bottles
Empty premium bottles are refilled with inferior product and resold at full price — a practice nearly impossible for consumers to detect.
Grey Market Diversion
Unauthorized cross-border distribution undermines regional pricing strategies and dilutes exclusive distribution agreements.
Health & Safety Risks
Counterfeit spirits containing methanol and other toxic substances cause thousands of poisoning incidents and deaths annually.
Provenance Fraud
Misrepresented vintages, regions of origin, and aging claims erode consumer trust in premium wine and spirits categories.
Regulatory Compliance
EU wine regulations, TTB requirements, and international trade rules demand increasing traceability and labeling transparency.
Revenue & Brand Erosion
Counterfeiting and unauthorized distribution cost the global spirits industry billions annually in lost revenue.
What Your Customers Worry About
Consumers spending premium prices on wine and spirits need confidence that what they're buying is genuine.
No reliable way to verify if a bottle is genuine before opening it
Fear of consuming counterfeit spirits containing harmful substances
Uncertainty about vintage, origin, and aging claims on premium wines
Risk of purchasing refilled bottles from unauthorized resellers
Inability to verify authenticity of gifted or auction-purchased bottles
Growing distrust of online marketplaces for premium alcohol purchases
How TAGBASE Solves This
Our NFC-based trust infrastructure gives every bottle a unique, uncopyable digital identity — from vineyard to glass.
Uncopyable NFC Identity
Each bottle receives a cryptographically secured NFC tag that cannot be cloned or transferred. Tamper-evident placement detects refilling attempts.
Instant Consumer Verification
Customers tap the bottle with any NFC-enabled smartphone — no app needed. Authenticity, provenance, and tasting notes appear instantly.
Grey Market Detection
Geographic and temporal scan data reveals unauthorized distribution patterns, parallel imports, and suspicious resale activity in real time.
Full Provenance Trail
Track every bottle from production through distribution to point of sale. Verify vintage, origin, and chain of custody with immutable records.

Ready for the EU Digital product passport
The european union is mandating digital product passports (DPP) across a growing number of industries. Brands that sell in the EU must provide detailed product data — from materials and origin to sustainability metrics — accessible via a digital carrier on each product.
TAGBASE's NFC-based infrastructure is built to serve as your DPP carrier. Our platform already supports structured product data, document attachments, and supply chain events — everything you need to be compliant before the deadlines hit.
Discuss DPP complianceTurn every scan into Actionable insight
Every time someone verifies one of your products, TAGBASE captures valuable data points and makes them available to you — giving you full visibility into how, where, and when your products are being interacted with in the real world.
- Device & Browser details
Know which phone model, operating system, and browser was used for each verification — useful for understanding your customer demographics.
- Timestamp & frequency
See exactly when each product was scanned, how often, and detect unusual patterns like repeated verifications that may indicate suspicious activity.
- Geolocation data
When the user shares their location, you get precise geolocation. Otherwise, we still provide country-level data — helping you spot grey market activity or regional demand.
- Portal analytics & raw data export
View all statistics directly in the TAGBASE portal, or export the raw data to feed into your existing ERP systems and run your own custom analytics.
