Wine served from a bar tap coming to a restaurant/bar near you?
Read this Nation's Restaurant News article, "Wine-filled barrels roll into vogue as economical, environmental alternative to bottles", to see why it's not such a bad idea even for premium wines and might actually catch on in Hendersonville as well as nationally.
Here's an overview excerpt:
"For starters, lower packaging and distribution costs and volume economies allow vintners to charge less for wine in barrels than they would for bottles. In turn, operators can offer attractive prices and still have a good profit margin. What’s more, the airtight barrel preserves wine far better than corks, stoppers or other methods. Finally, tap wines are friendlier to the environment than bottles, because they require much less packaging and shipping."
