Instruments for Wine Promotion in Upscale Restaurants
2010
In recent years, wine marketing has assumed an increasingly important role in restaurants. The growing complexity of the supply of wines determines that consumer choice is conditioned by wine labels included in the wine list and the influence of the waiter.
