WineRelease.com's June 15, 2009 Monthly Newsletter.
Greetings from WineRelease.com, now 1,349 winery listings strong!
Thanks to all who responded to WineRelease.com's Restaurant Wine Survey.
We were very pleased with the results and passionate feedback.
The next time we do a survey, and we plan to do many more, we will allow feedback for each question because you are a passionate bunch.
I have been wanting to do the Restaurant wine survey for over a year because of question number 7 - "Currently when ordering wine in most restaurants, you initially taste and determine if the wine is acceptable.
If you don't think the wine is acceptable, the waiter/sommelier tastes the wine. Should the sommelier (or waiter) taste the wine initially?"
69% of you want to keep the current method of being the taster. I disagree. Hear me out on this.
I want the waiter/sommelier to taste the wine (a small 1/4 ounce) for 2 primary reasons;
- They have experience with the wine more than I do because they will have tasted the wine many times while working.
- They would be better at recommending wines on their list if they were constantly tasting the wines.
I still believe the customer should be the person who determines if the wine is flawed, but sometimes I am unsure and I would rather have he/she try first. Voice your opinion by clicking here.
And now, on to the show...
