Searching for Wholesale Commercial Wine Supplies or Equipment

Our Wine Pourer & Stopper
Actually Increases Bottle Wine Sales

If you buy commercial wine equipment, our unique wine pourer and stopper can actually boost your wine bottle sales. It's true - by increasing the number of wines you serve by the glass you can actually increase sales of bottles.

The secret is using Vintage Lock™, the perfect wine pourer and stopper for restaurants serving wine by the glass, where expensive gas dispensing systems are cost prohibitive and where vacuum and spray preservers require extra time and negatively affect customer service. Vintage Lock is an inexpensive and effective alternative.
You can't afford not to try it!

Restaurant owners and managers who buy wholesale or commercial wine supplies and equipment must keep a close watch on waste that threatens their profit. Don't give in to the temptation to cut back on your wines by the glass program in order to save money. The Vintage Lock wine pourer and stopper limits profit loss, due to wasted wine, by keeping air away from the wine and preventing oxidation once the wine bottle has been opened. How many bottles of wine do you have to throw away due to spoilage before you are able sell the wine? Not anymore!

Bartenders will appreciate the “one-handed” operation of Vintage Lock.  You won’t waste time uncorking bottles every time you want to pour.  A bottle with Vintage Lock pours just as fast as a bottle without Vintage Lock and just look how smooth it pours.  No more splashing as the wine comes out!  The thumb-operated valve seals the bottle without having to return a cork with your free hand.  Vintage Lock won’t slow you down when you have customers waiting!

Other wine pourer & stopper products just don't work for most restaurants serving wine by the glass. For example, spray and vacuum systems are used at the end of the night, when the restaurant closes, because they take to much time to use during the day. But what happens when a bartender pours two glasses of wine from a bottle at 2 o'clock in the afternoon? That wine sits on the shelf, oxidizing, until closing time (10 to 12 hours later) when the staff finally gets time to use a spray or vacuum on the bottle. That wine has already started to spoil!

Let's look at what is available;

Wine Dispensing Cabinets - If you are fortunate to have enough revenue to justify one of these units you are more than likely going to spend between five and ten thousand dollars just for the unit alone.  Vintage Lock will protect your wine and cost far less per bottle than gas dispensing systems.

Spray can preservers - These commercial wine products require four to five sprays, of an inert gas, into the wine bottle before corking so that air is displaced by the gas.  Really though, how do you know that the bartenders actually used the product at the end of the night?  You can't look at the bottle and tell.  It still looks like there is air in the bottle!  Besides, how many of the bartenders are going to want to mess with a spray can every time they pour a glass of wine, when there are tipping customers waiting for them on the other side of the bar?  With the Vintage Lock wine pourer stopper you can see the wine level at the top of the bottle and be sure that your product is protected. 

Vacuum pumps - What happens when you use a commercial wine vacuum pump to remove air from a wine bottle?  You are going to pump 10 to 20 times, trying to get the air out, but the air is never really totally removed after you pump.  Even if it didn't take extra time away from serving customers vacuum systems just don't work! (see Wall Street Journal 12/12/88); they just don't remove enough oxygen to stop oxidation.
