‘Self-serve’ Wine Machine Dispenses High-End Samples
The newly installed WineStation at the Cork & Vine Wine Market & Lounge has a lot in common in both function and appearance with an ATM — but instead of spitting out money, it pours out wine. “People love it — they think it’s neat,” said Kara York, general manager of the wine bar at 3452 York Commons Blvd. near Miller Lane. “And the advantage to us is that we can sell wines that have a higher bottle price, and it gives our customers the opportunity to taste some more expensive wines...

How about a grab-and-go bottle of wine for exactly $10 including tax? Although they are all tempting, I head straight to the counter to grab a glass while I decide if I want to...

Imagine owning a bar and letting customers help themselves to the wine. How long could you stay in business? At Corks & More, the self-serve policy has been working quite well since January, when the tasting room and tapas bar on Ithaca's Cayuga Lake Inlet opened.
