iCloud is great to share data across all the devices and is a great way to store data securely.
One drawback is that iCloud does not backup third party application data.
One way to lose important data without any way to recover would be to accidentally erase all data from one device that uses iCloud. If this happens, the next time other devices sync up with iCloud, it would erase all the cellar data across all the devices.
In order to prevent this disaster from happening, the user is encouraged to keep a local copy of the cellar on his computer as a backup. This can be done using the normal import/export feature that is offered in Wine Cellar.
Also, to prevent the accidental loss of the whole cellar, the options to 'Delete All Bottles' and to 'Delete All pictures' have been disabled when Wine Cellar is using iCloud.
First, before starting do a backup of your iPhone/iPad using iTunes or iCloud
