I spent the past week in Port St. Lucie, spring home of the NY Mets and winter home of my NY mother. The town is on the east coast of Florida, about halfway between Miami and Orlando. For me, its major claim to fame, aside from Mom, is the average dail…

Virginia Wine Lover’s Magazine has just done a great little piece about the Enomatic Wine Stations featuring our little wine bar on the front page of the article. Click here for access and check out the pictures.

The Enomatics keep generating quite a buzz and for good reason, there is no other way I know of to be able to open and make available to patrons the special, high-end or limited production wines we keep in our Enomatics. The machines allow us great flexibility and volume. 32 wines by the glass, sample or half-glass would be impossible without this technology.
