Wine-Searcher is a web search engine dedicated to wine. The company was founded in London by Martin Brown in 1999. In 2006, the operation was shifted to Auckland in New Zealand. As of 15th July 2008, the site listed more than 9000 wine merchants offering in excess of 3 million products. [ cite web |url= http://www.wine-searcher.com/ |title= Home Page wine-searcher.com |accessdaymonth= 15 July |accessyear= 2008 ] However, at that time, far from all wine merchants with a web presence were listed with Wine-Searcher.

Apart from its core function of being a search engine for wines, Wine-Searcher can also be used to search for wine related information such as grape varieties, regions and appellation, wine gift ideas, wine competition results, recommended vintages, organic wine, kosher wine, and other topics.

Wine-Searcher offers some functionality free of charge, but does not display all search hits to non-paying users. Full functionality requires subscription and payment.
