Reduce wine costs and eliminate waste. We save up to 30% by kegging wines over bottling, giving you the best quality possible at market prices.
Say goodbye to oxidized bottles and spoiled wine. Kegs stay fresh for 8+ weeks once tapped with the last glass as delicious as the first.
Pour perfect glasses in seconds. No cork pulling, no bottle opening. Just fast, consistent service during peak hours.
Eliminate glass bottles and reduce your carbon footprint. Each keg replaces 26 bottles, dramatically cutting packaging waste.
A side-by-side look at the operational, quality, and sustainability differences for hospitality venues.
| Wine on Tap | Bottled Wine | |
|---|---|---|
| Freshness After Opening | 8–12 weeks minimum | 24–48 hours |
| Waste | Near zero — keg is fully used | Potential for oxidation in open bottles |
| Carbon Footprint | Up to 50% lower — recyclable kegs | Single-use glass, heavier shipping |
| Storage Space | Compact keg system, minimal footprint, no need to refrigerate | Double the storage footprint for case equivalent |
| Service Speed | Pour in seconds | Open, present, pour — slower process |
| Consistency | Every glass identical — no bottle variation | Cork taint, oxidation risk per bottle |
| Upfront Cost | No equipment cost — tap system provided by WineLab | No system required, but higher per-serve operational costs |

Once tapped, wine in our keg systems stays fresh for 8-12 weeks minimum. This is significantly longer than bottled wine, which oxidizes within 24-48 hours of opening.
Most installations are completed in 2-4 hours with minimal disruption to your operations. We typically schedule installations during off-peak hours or closed days. Our team handles everything from tap installation to cooling system setup and staff training.
Absolutely! We work with you to curate a selection that matches your venue's style, cuisine, and target market. You can change wines seasonally or based on customer preferences. Our sales team provides ongoing recommendations.
We provide regular maintenance visits to clean lines, check equipment, and ensure optimal performance. We also train your staff on daily maintenance procedures. All maintenance is included in your service agreement.
Yes! In many cases, it's better. Because kegged wine is protected from oxygen exposure, it maintains its intended flavour profile perfectly. Many of our partner wineries prefer kegging for by-the-glass programs because it ensures guests experience the wine exactly as the winemaker intended.
There's no cost. All we ask is that you sell a reasonable volume of wine and/or cocktails per month and we provide equipment at no upfront cost.
