Registered Cellarit customers, whether they store wine with us or not, have access to our software to catalogue their wine. Cellarit is always looking at ways to enhance the usability and value of our software for our diverse range of customers. The two new enhancements described below were developed in response to client feedback, so please contact us with any suggestions to enhance these new features or any thoughts you may have for further improvements. Tasting Notes & Information "My Cellar" lists your wine stored at Cellarit or catalogued elsewhere. Next to each wine is a set of icons, including "i" for information. The "i" icon takes you to a page which gives you further information about your wine. You can now type in tasting notes or add any additional information about the wine in the new text box. Just click "update" and the information will be permanently stored for that wine. "Add a Wine" to our Database Tool While our database is very comprehensive and includes wines from most major producing countries, our customers are always finding new wines or wineries that are not yet in the database. We respond to requests to update our database almost immediately, but now you can use our new "Add a Wine" tool to add a new wine to our database yourself. After you logon, go to "Catalog My Wine" or "Send Wine to Cellarit". If you can't find the wine you are looking for, click on "New Wine". You can use the pre-formatted lists to indicate the country, winery, variety, etc. or just type the information into the text boxes and click "Create Wine". Cellarit assigns unique serial numbers to every wine in our database and reviews each new wine entry for accuracy before permanently adding it to our database. We hope you'll find these new features useful.
