Smart search enables you to quickly design and execute a specific inquiry. It is particularly helpful when looking for one or more vintages of a particular wine. You may enter the information in any order in smart search. For example all these will yield the same search result:

• 1998 Acme Merlot
• Merlot Acme 1998
• Acme 1998 Merlot

For all vintages of the wine:

Acme Merlot

You can also use the separate search below the line to achieve the same results, but smart search may prove to be easier to use in the case of a specific wine or winery, or all wines of one varietal (ie: Merlot) or appellation (ie: Napa).

You may smart search for one brand, varietal, vintage, appellation and wine type. However, entering more than one of any these fields will yield a search result of zero.
