BACCHUS™ 3.1 is a comprehensive Wine Cellar Management Software System suitable for Macintosh and PC and is compatible with most recent system versions. It is specifically designed for the true amateur who wants an accurate cellar management system which allows him or her to create personal tasting notes, manage orders, bring up to date and check figures, quantity and value of stock in the cellar, and also allows the integration of comprehensive iconography and cartography linked to the producers, and the use of web tools straight from the application.

 

The software comes pre-loaded with data from the acclaimed Wine Behind The Label 2006, an in-depth guide to the world's leading wine producers and their wines, by Philip Williamson and David Moore. Now in its fourth year of publication, there are over 6,000 wine producers of which, over 2,400 are studied in-depth with ratings on over 12,000 wines, maps, vintage charts and UK stockists with full contact details.

 

Now you can cut and paste your existing tasting notes from any database into the Bacchus System, which will save you an awful lot of time in relocating them. Conversely, you can cut and paste fromBacchus into Word, for example, or any other format on your computer (say, Palm, ready to be downloaded from your computer to your hand held.) And this doesn't stop short of your own tasting notes.

 

There is nothing to stop you pasting in tasting notes from famous wine writers (or even infamous ones) as long as you just use them for yourself. Using the powerful FileMaker Pro 8 ® database, it is only a mouse click away to creating your wine cellar management system with easy drop down menus to facilitate professional tasting notes and assessments on each wine cellared and tasted. BACCHUS™ 3.1 allows you to cellar up to 100 different wines (in as many vintages as you wish) which should be more than enough for the average amateur and is available at £29.95 in a downloadable version via the internet, or £34.95 on CDROM.

 

For professionals,the BACCHUS PRO 1.0 version is available giving you the facility to enter an UNLIMITED number of wines, either for stocking purposes, or simply to create an easily accessible database to house an archive of tasting notes, assessments and reviews for future publication.

 

BACCHUS PRO 1.0 sells at £99.95 downloadable

(£104.95 on CDROM) or can be upgraded from BACCHUS™ 3.1 at a cost of £75. (download only).
