Portfolio sorting options

Hi,

I would like to use the portfolio grid, but i do need to different search functions.

Once I wanna search for Type e.g. Apple, Pear, Berry, Herb
and then I also want a search by characteristic e.g. green, red, blue, etc.

It would be perfect if I could combine the two, like: show me red apples, etc.

Is this possible with Enfold and if so, how would I go about it?
I was thinking along the lines to once sort by category (Type) and then use tags for the second search (characteristics) but it doesnt seem possible to use tags for the portfolio sorting.

If Enfold doesnt provide this, is it possible to use a plugin like Search & Filter?
