"Sounds like a great concept. Does it rely on all of us wineries & distributors to list our retailers with you? It is harder than heck to get our distributors to give us the list of accounts that carry our wines!"

- About my company:
- Grappos.com is a free wine locator designed specifically to show consumers where they can find wines locally. It’s the best of both worlds: the convenience of an online database and the immediacy of a local purchase. At Grappos.com, users enter the name of the wine they’re looking for along with their zip code. A locator map displays all of the local stores that carry the wine. To help users find the right wine, the search tool suggests possible matches as they enter the name. Once a wine is selected, an image of the label appears so users can be sure they’ve found the right wine.
Distributors, wineries, importers, and retailers can list all of their wines and store locations for free on Grappos.com.
