Winerim vs the traditional printed wine list
The printed wine list has been the standard for decades. But in a world where costs, rotation and competition demand efficiency, is it still enough?
A printed wine list is a physical document that shows the wines available. Winerim is a digital platform that, as well as showing the wines, recommends, analyses and manages the cellar in real time.
- Every change to a printed wine list costs money and time to reprint
- Winerim updates instantly: prices, vintages, availability
- A printed wine list does not personalise the guest experience
- Winerim tailors suggestions to the dish, preferences and context
- When reprinting costs pile up because of frequent changes
- When the wine list has more than 30 wines and guests get lost
- When the front-of-house team needs tools to recommend
- When you want to know which wines sell and which are dead stock
Can I use Winerim and also keep a printed wine list?
Yes. Many restaurants use both: a shorter printed list with highlights, and Winerim for the full wine list with wine profiles and recommendations.
Does Winerim work on tablets to keep things elegant?
Yes. Winerim is used on tablets at the table, keeping the experience premium and elegant, and adapted to the restaurant's branding.
How much will I save on printing with Winerim?
It depends on how often you make changes. Restaurants that rotate their list monthly can save several hundred euros a year on printing alone.
