Tables are great. But managing large, messy lists—like that giant barrel inventory—can be a total headache. They're hard to summarize, difficult to interrogate, and for too many winemakers, the fallback is still spreadsheets.
Tables 2.0 is our answer to that.
It’s the new table control experience within Blended, starting with the Facility section and expanding to others soon. Tables 2.0 brings pivot table–like functionality directly into the Blended platform, so you can ditch the exports and stay in the app.
This guide will walk you through the new controls and showcase a few creative ways to use them to answer real operational questions.
What’s New in Tables 2.0?
Every column now has a new control menu, accessible via the carrot icon (▾) to the right of the column name. Click it, and you’ll see options to:
Sort
Organize your table in ascending or descending order. Once sorted, an arrow will appear next to the column header to show the active sort.
Filter
Select one or more values within a column to isolate only the rows that match.
Example: Filter the Cooper column for Seguin Moreau and Francois Frères to see only the barrels made by those producers.
When a filter is active, a magnifying glass icon appears next to the column name.
Group
This reorganizes your data by summarizing rows under grouped values.
Example: Group by Cooper to instantly see how many barrels you have from each cooper.
Use the triangle icon at the start of the row to expand and view all the records within that group.
And yes, you can combine Sort, Filter, and Group across multiple columns at once.
Real-Life Use Cases for Winemakers
Let’s walk through a few examples of how Tables 2.0 makes life in the winery easier, faster, and far more insightful.
How many used barrels will I have for harvest?
You’re planning for the upcoming vintage and want to figure out how many barrels will be freed up.
- Group by: Cooper
- Filter on: Fill = Full
- Filter on: Lots that will be bottled prior to harvest
Now you've got a summary of how many full barrels (by cooper) are currently in use, but will be available in time. Expand the rows to see each vessel’s use history—decide what stays, what gets sold.
How can I get a vessel-centric view of wine in process?
Sometimes you don’t want a lot-centric report—you want to look at the vessels themselves.
- Group by: Lot
Each row now represents a Lot, with summary metrics like average time in barrel, average barrel age, and cooper composition. Expand to view every individual vessel that makes up that Lot.
What’s in Barrel Room A, Rows 7–10?
You track barrels by location and row number. Let’s zero in.
- Group by: Lot
- Filter by: Location = Barrel Room A
- Filter by: Row = 7, 8, 9, 10
Boom. Now you see which Lots are stored in that specific zone, and which individual barrels belong to them.
Get Creative
This is just the beginning. Tables 2.0 is built to give you the flexibility and power to explore your data the way you actually think—not the way traditional UIs force you to behave.
