I heard that Proof restaurant is offering doggy bags for wine, in compliance with DC's recent "merlot to go" law. One unfinished bottle of wine per person. Are any other DC restaurants doing this yet? This has to be good for restaurateurs, since customers may be more likely to buy a nicer bottle of wine if they can take the unfinished portions home, rather than feel compelled to drink the whole bottle or leave it behind.
That's true... Proof restaurant (as well as many others) offers "Wine To Go" bags from http://www.togobrand.com. I am the owner of Togobrand.com - and if your favorite restaurant isn't offering our wine-to-go-bags, please let them know where to get them. I'd also like to offer to answer any questions about this specific legislation and similar laws that have been passed in over 30 states now...
