To create a CMS-powered wine list with a structure like the example provided using Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Set up a Collection in the Webflow CMS:
  • Go to the Editor in Webflow and navigate to the CMS Collections panel.
  • Click on "Add Collection" and give it a name, like "Wine List".
  • Define the fields for each wine, such as "Name," "Description," "Price," "Type," etc.
  • Add a reference field for the wine's category (e.g., "Red," "White," "Rosé," etc.).
  1. Create a Collection Template for the wine list:
  • From the CMS Collections panel, select your "Wine List" collection and click on "Add Template Page."
  • Design the layout of the wine list, including sections for the name, description, price, and type of each wine.
  • Use dynamic fields to pull in the data from your CMS Collection for each wine.
  1. Add the wine categories as Collection Lists:
  • Create a new Collection List inside the template page for the wine categories (e.g., "Red," "White," "Rosé," etc.).
  • Set the collection list to filter by category and sort by name or another relevant field.
  • Design the layout for each category, including the wine name, description, price, and type.
  • Use dynamic fields to connect the data from the CMS Collection to each wine card.
  1. Style your wine list:
  • Customize the layout, typography, and colors to match the design of your wine list.
  • Use CSS classes or Webflow’s built-in styles to style the various elements consistently.
  • Add hover effects, animations, or any other visual enhancements desired.
  1. Publish your wine list:
  • Review your wine list to ensure all the data and styles are correctly displayed.
  • Publish your site to make the wine list live and accessible to visitors.
  • Test the responsiveness and compatibility of your wine list on different devices and browsers.

By following these steps, you can create a CMS-powered wine list with a structure similar to the example provided using Webflow. This will allow you to easily manage and update your wine list content while maintaining a consistent design.
