What is a wine serving system and how does it work?
Understanding how an enomatic wine system works is essential for anyone considering investing in or operating a wine-by-the-glass program.
What is a wine pouring system and how does it work?
An Enomatic wine serving system is a smart solution for serving wine by the glass. It preserves, cools, and dispenses wine directly from the bottle, helping venues offer more variety, reduce waste, and increase profitability.
How it works
Enomatic systems use a protective atmosphere of food-grade argon gas – a gas that is odourless, tasteless, colourless, and chemically inert, which means it won’t alter the wine. Instead, argon prevents oxygen from entering the bottle once it’s opened, keeping wines fresh for up to 21–30 days.
The four core functions
-
Wine preservation – Keeps opened bottles fresh for weeks.
-
Temperature control – Adjustable from 6–18°C, with dual-zone options on select models to serve reds and whites at their ideal temperatures within the same unit.
-
Automated dispensing – Delivers precise pour sizes every time, reducing over-pours and wastage.
-
Stylish display – Presents wines attractively, encouraging customers to explore more by-the-glass options.
