Ann Arbor, Michigan, 4 October 2007 The Chop House, Ann Arbor, MI, building on its philosophy and tradition of creating a distinctive upscale downtown restaurant experience has debuted Napa Technology’s WineStation® Intelligent Dispensing Systems.

WineStation is the world’s first automated measured dispensing and preservation solution, combining business intelligence, style, ease of installation and use, into a family of wine serving appliances. Its patent pending Clean-Pour ™ hygienic dispensing technology allows WineStation to deliver the first time taste the winemaker intended, every time, for up to 60 days, even when wines preserved by WineStation are out of the unit. WineStation simplicity and low maintenance is specifically designed to help customers like The Chop House increase revenues, control costs and maximize profits in serving wines by the glass.

"The Chop House has earned a reputation for serving the finest prime beef and exceptional wines in our refined environment, located in the heart of Ann Arbor, Michigan", said Eric Arsenault, Director of Wine Programs for The Chop House. "Therefore, it was only natural for The Chop House to introduce WineStation to Michigan, as part of our commitment of creating new and engaging guest experiences. For us, our use of WineStation is more than just about wine dispensing and preservation. It’s about showcasing leading wines from around the world. WineStation gives our customers the chance to explore, taste and enjoy boutique and hard to find wines they have heard so much about, whether it’s by the glass or as a tasting experience prior to ordering their new discovery as an accompaniment with their meal."

Kelly Lew, The Chop House, Ann Arbor’s General Manager further noted, "we are impressed with WineStation’s operating control and design since it allows us to assure our guests the taste and freshness they have come to expect from a "just opened" bottle of wine, now for service by the glass, while at the same time helping us eliminate over pouring or discarding wine due to oxidation and spoilage".

Jeffrey Brooks, a Co-Founder and Managing Director of Napa Technology stated that, "The Chop House innovative approach to wine tasting, such as this month’s thematic showcase and tasting of eight of the world’s leading Pinot Noir’s is creating a new experience both for wine aficionado’s and those wanting to broaden their wine knowledge and horizons. When coupled with The Chop House’s award winning cuisine, outstanding service and knowledgeable staff, WineStation and the wines it features is sure to deliver a memorable dining and wine tasting experience."

WineStation’s modular and expandable unit design is ideal for customers who want to create a wine showcase that can feature as few as four or up to hundreds of bottles of wine. WineStation is immediately available for delivery and "out of the box" installation.
