LAGUNA HILLS, Calif., Sept. 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- WineMatch, the leading wine matching web site with integrated social media, has optimized its search tools for use with Apple's iPad and Android tablets. WheelPlay' has been enhanced with sliders and helpful tips in making it even easier for consumers to find the right wine easily and quickly. "WineMatch works on the iPad and Android tablets so folks can take advantage of our website while dining or shopping," says Ed Leard, WineMatch CEO.
By using the sliders, consumers can quickly and easily adjust things like Fruit, Finish, Aroma, Oak, Tannins and others characteristics. For example, if you like a Sterling Vineyards 2006 Merlot, simply click on the center of the wheel. WheelPlay' then allows you to specify more Fruit and Complexity and easily refresh your results to better tailor wines results to your specific tastes. Also unique to WineMatch, this functionality allows you to find wines that have similar qualities regardless of grape varietal.
WineMatch is the only website that allows consumers to drill down to this level of detail and specify exactly what they like. "It is incredible," says Jon, owner of Inspiration Vineyards in Santa Rosa. "In a few years every winery will have their wines on WineMatch. It will become the new standard for wine, dramatically decreasing the relevance and dependence of a 100-point system controlled by a handful of wine critics."
WineMatch launched the new innovative mobile search tools this week to celebrate the Family Winemakers Event in San Francisco at historic Fort Mason on September 9th and 10th. Ed also added "This is the premier California event where family-owned wineries in California debut their new vintages to restaurants, hotel, wine bars and consumers.
