Wines By the Taste

by Farley

Thanks, Paul, for sending me this link for the Wine Dispenser. I’ve been to the Cafe Rosso & Bianco in Palo Alto (though I think when I went there it was called Cafe Niebaum Coppola) where they have the same kind of system–called enomatic– in place. You purchase a card with $10, 20, or 30 and then can dispense a taste, half glass, or full glass. This allows you to sample some fairly expensive wines you might not otherwise be able to afford. Another one that I haven’t been to yet is750 ml in San Mateo, but it’s definitely on my list of places to go.

    750ml is pretty cool, you should check it out. They don’t really have the benefit of a nice view or a big, interesting space though, so I suggest going when they have an event happening. I went for a friend’s art show and the place was packed and very lively. Great wines on the fountain too!
