The present invention describes a Radiofrequency Identification (RFID) application for the wine sector, which allows a bidirectional flow of information between the wine producer and the consumer. This is possible because the basic units of the system, namely the Producer, the Consumer and the RFID Tags are in communication with each other through a computer network.
In this application, the producer transmits information regarding the product to the consumer, associating it with the identity code of the RFID Tags integrated in the labels applied to the bottles of wine. The information is stored in a database present in a processor, which acts as a server, belonging to the computer network. The customer has access to this information via a "client" terminal, belonging to the computer network and connected to an RFID tag read/write (R/W) unit. Via another "mobile" terminal, not necessarily belonging to the computer network but connected to an RFID tag R/W unit, the consumer stores additional feedback information on the tag memory unit, at any time, through special software. This information is then read by a further "base" terminal, belonging to the computer network and provided with an RFID tag R/W unit and saved in the database.
