**Q: I don't see a varietal in the list? How can I add this?**<br>
A: First of all, please ensure that the varietal **really** isn't in the 
database. By default CellarTracker will only show you varietals where other 
wines of the same type and region have this varietal assigned. You can change 
the default filtering options easily to show all of the varietals though:

If the varietal still does not appear in the list then either 
[http://www.cellartracker.com/forum/tt.asp?forumid=4 post a request in the 
Errors & Corrections forum] or email eric@cellartracker.com with a request 
to add the varietal. Please also create the wine and include the varietal name 
as all or part of the Designation field. We will subsequently clean this up 
once we add the new varietal.
  
**Q: I have a wine that uses multiple varietals, but I don't see this 
combination in the list. What is your policy here?**<br>
A: While we do have some multi-varietal combinations in the list we generally 
avoid adding new ones. I order to keep the list under control we would prefer 
that you use "Red Blend" or "White Blend" and then embed 
the varietal names in the designation if, and only if, they appear prominently 
on the front label.
  
**Q: How can I keep track of the exact varietal percentages for a 
multi-varietal wine?**<br>
A: The best place to store this is in the per-wine Wiki article for that wine.
