Free Flow Wines

As a sommelier and wine buyer who’s spent a majority of my career in fine dining, I would focus on recreating that moment for my guests. I wanted them to walk out of my restaurant feeling like they’ve spent the evening on a cloud with elegant service, great food, and (above all) a wine they’ll remember for a long time.

Last year she chose to move to Napa to try her hand at Harvest at Antica in Atlas Peak after extensive experience working as a sommelier and wine buyer in some of Chicago’s best restaurants (including Sepia and the Boka group).

” Corrinne has been working with Perlick distributors, bar owners, and designers for years to help ensure every install is flawless and customized to a client’s specific needs. We developed and tested our line of Sanitary 304 stainless steel components to ensure wine avoids becoming pitted or ruined by a tap system. Corrinne adds, “304 stainless steel components are what you want for wine on tap since wine has got a fair amount of acidity.” Our Wine Certified Tapping Kits include all the components you need. Like we said, Corrinne knows her wine, and she promises us that tap wine is just as good, if not even better, than wine poured from the almighty bottle.

A self-serve wine wall will generally limit the number of interactions that would be necessary between the staff and guests at a bar with a traditional dispense setup. The conventional method includes a bartender(s) pouring and a waiter/waitress bringing the wine to one’s table, resulting in many touchpoints and interactions between the staff members and customers. When an establishment offers self-pour wine, guests can get drinks when they want, as opposed to going through the entire process of placing an order like at a traditional bar. Kegged wine stays fresh for up to 3 months, as opposed to wine in bottles, which, if opened but unfinished, often need to be thrown away in less than a week.

This type of program is ideal for any business that serves wine by the glass, because (on average) businesses save $0.05-$0.08/oz by serving wines-on-tap compared to the bottled equivalent. A mobile kegerator is also ideal for businesses that host events and want the flexibility to incorporate wine-on-tap into their indoor or outdoor bar space. This option is ideal for businesses that have space behind the bar to store tapped kegs within a close range to the tap faucet. Stainless steel kegs are 9.5” in diameter and easily stackable, so you can conserve storage space when transitioning to kegs for your by-the-glass wine program.
