Wines by the glass in a classier fashion.?
Okay, I guess this isn't so much a question as it is a suggestion for all the restaurant and bar managers out there.
Most restaurants pour their wines by the glass into a glass or small carafe at the bar and then bring the wine to the diner's table.
A few of the really classy places I have been to in Montreal and Quebec City would bring the bottle to the table, show me the label, then give me a sample pour to ensure the wine is okay before filling my glass.
It's a little extra effort for the server, but I really can't see how an establishment could go wrong doing this!
My point is, it doesn't have to be a sommelier. Any server who can hold a bottle and pour wine should be able to do this. The wine has already been chosen.
Whoa! A four ounce test pour? It really only should be about half an ounce, just enough for one sniff and taste.
Here's the deal.
This process is very time consuming. It would not work in a high volumne establishment.
This is an excellent form of service for some placed.
I at least would like to see the glass poured in front of me.
