This tool is about more than just providing entertainment for wine lovers in that it also has a tangible business aspect.Practical implicationsBased on these results, the authors assume that online wine tastings will continue to be offered after the Covid-19 crisis.Originality/valueThis paper offers a situation analysis of the first 10 months of the Covid-19 pandemic in the field of online wine tastings worldwide.
