WINE MENU MANAGER (WMM)

wine list preview

The WineQuest Wine Menu Manager (WMM) helps restaurants to easily create, price, and print accurate and relevant wine lists to accommodate the challenges of any beverage program.

Additionally, WMM can list your wines traditionally by price or progressively by flavor. The progressive listing can significantly reduce the intimidation factor wine has on most waiters and guests - resulting in higher wine sales and happier customers for you. We have seen annual wine sales increase up to 35% after using WMM to manage their wine lists. Our secret to WMM lies in our WineInsight Database of 120,000+ wines where all are correctly spelled with proper international characters where applicable and each wine is assigned a unique “flavor profile” by our Wine Review Team. This allows WMM to know the proper presentation and placement of a wine on any list.

CORE WINE MANAGER

For corporate customers or those with multiple locations, the Core Wine Module adds a layer to WMM enabling each restaurant to easily add and price their company’s core wines to their wine lists. Each core wine contains a .PDF information sheet along with web links to the producers to help servers and bartenders learn about the wines. Any additions/subtractions to the core list can be updated quickly by each restaurant with just a few clicks. The Core Wine Module is a great time saver and an excellent tool to discover the value of the core wines at all locations.

Benefits

  • Easily add and price core wines to restaurants wine lists
  • Helps restaurant staff to quickly learn how to sell core wine

BEVERAGE DATABASE

The WineQuest system is based on a database of over 130,000 products. This is the most consistent and accurate large database of beverage products available in the industry, with no duplicates or misspelled products and with proper international characters. No other database has this level of correctness. All the wines are also flavor profiled to enable progressive wine lists. The database contains links to producer websites, product info sheets (PDF), google searches to simplify research and make more information available at your fingertips. The database makes it easier to create consistent menus without typos and with consistent naming conventions. This improves the appearance and professionalism of menus. It also enables organizations to better understand what they have with consistent naming conventions. Across multiple locations, one can see commonalities. Tied with the Adaco inventory/purchasing management, purchasing, inventory, and menus are all made consistent and reportable. How much of a product or a producer was purchased across an enterprise is now known due to the database.

Wine is the focus of this database, but in 2H 2010 we released the beverage database as well. By the middle of 2011, the database for beer, spirits, and cocktails will be as complete and robust as the wine database.

menu templates

WineQuest can take a copy of your current wine menu and create an identical custom template in .PDF format for use in WMM. This saves you the hours and hours spent adjusting and formatting page breaks, spelling issues, page numbering, etc. that you might deal with today. WineQuest automates the whole process and change to your menu now takes seconds: add a wine, change a price, and print. It's that easy.

Benefits

  • Formatted to your exact menu standards
  • Time savings - easy to add a wine, re-print menu, and hand to guest
  • Menu accuracy
