Comments from the restaurant:
 
"LJ Crafted Wines was born out of concern for the environment. Our patent-pending technology enables us to serve top-end wines direct from the barrel into reusable bottles. This process avoids the high energy production & disposal required for traditional single-use glass wine bottles. We pride ourselves in producing wines with a lighter carbon footprint, at the same time supporting a zero-waste lifestyle. "
