Wine search on our website

Our new intelligent search engine automatically suggest common search terms, rates the search results by quality and sorts them by relevance.

Usually word fragments are enough to find a wine, e.g. blaufr burg for all Blaufränkisch wines from Burgenland. If the returned search results are not sufficient, you can also use these operators to narrow down your search:

no operator: intelligent combination of all search terms e.g. grüner veltliner
+ this term is required, e.g. +grüner +veltliner
- this term must not be shown, e.g. +zweigelt -cuvée
* wildcard character, e.g. zweig*
".." literal expression, e.g. "finish"
(..) group several words to one term
> < up- or downgrade the relevance of a term for sorting

All operators kann be associated with each other in any order. For further, more detailed information on the boolean search algorithm please refer to the mySQL site (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/de/fulltext-boolean.html).
