Answer to Question 1

Once the cork has been removed, and the lip of the bottle wiped with a clean side towel, the server should pour about one ounce of wine for tasting purposes. the bottle should be held at the base with the label facing up while pouring

Answer to Question 2

It is wise to talk with persons with knowledge of applicable labor laws in a specific state to determine what, if any, discretion the manager may have. Federal wage laws prohibit server re-imbursement if doing so reduces their compensation to below minimum wage. Restaurant managers need to think about the lowered employee morale versus higher revenue aspects of this decision. Also, is it possible that the restaurant manager is, at least in part, at fault for not designing a system that minimizes walk-outs?
