The Wine-Searcher website is a specialist search engine for locating and pricing wines.

Wine-Searcher's Technology

Wine-Searcher technology consists of three software components, each of which has been written specifically for us;

• The website, built for us by Limitless Internet Solutions to search our database and take payments. Limitless also hosts our site.

• Spidering software, to pick up wine lists from websites and to process lists emailed to us. We include price lists from 14,381 wine merchants and retailers, and (normally) they are all updated three times a week.

• A wine knowledge database, to standardize the lists and make them searchable. This module includes a dictionary of common wine-related spelling errors (with over 1.5 million entries), along with region, grape, and producer information.
