17 days until Thanksgiving 
47 days until Christmas

It is unfortunate that we do not express our thankfulness on a monthly, daily, hourly basis, but rather the focus is on one particular time of year.  So...in the spirit of Thanksgiving, Uncorked would like to extend a BIG "Thank You" to our clients over the last 2½ years.  Without you, Uncorked would not be a reality for us!  You have opened your cellars and your minds to our concept...and for that, we will be eternally thankful. 
 
We have added a monthly wine tasting to express our gratitude.  This month, our WOW: Wine on Wednesday will be on November 17th at Savannah Red in the Charlotte Marriott Uptown.  For more information on that tasting, please view our Facebook page. 
 
This week Uncorked is featuring our "Give Thanks" Holiday Gift box.  Our "Give Thanks" box will take you from appetizers to turkey on Thanksgiving Day.  Featured inside this two bottle gift box is:
 
Conde De Subirat Cava Rose NV, a wonderful Rose sparkling from Spain and Ramsay Pinot Noir 2008 from the North Coast, California.  Retail cost for these two wines alone is well over $35.99, get both WITH Uncorked's Signature Gift Box packaging for just $29.99!
 
***Please note, all orders for "Give Thanks" boxes must be placed by Monday, November 22nd for guaranteed delivery on or before Thanksgiving Day.***

Wine of the Week..."The Quarterback" Red! Make this a part of your game-day tradition!

Top Wine of the Week (WOW) from Uncorked
Week of October 11, 2010
 
It's official!  It's Football Season!  What better way to show your support and love of the sport than to drink a wine from De Lisio affectionately named "The Quarterback" Red?!
 
"The Quarterback" Red Blend originates from McClaren Vale...not typically a region known for Football.  Luckily for wine drinkers, this is a well known region for FABULOUS red wine!  This Blend is comprised of 30% Cabernet, 27% Merlot, 26% Shiraz, and 17% Grenache. 
 
There are very few Australian wines that can boast 4 varieties deliberately blended together to achieve a wine that tastes so complete.  It is aptly named as the four varieties are in approximately equal proportions.  And if you need ONE MORE reason to take a chance on this wine, it's recent 90 point rating from Wine Advocate is helpful:
 
"Last year I was shown four De Lisio wines, this year only the entry level 2007 Quarterback, a sign of the times in a microcosm. The wine is a blend of 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 26% Shiraz, and 17% Grenache aged for 15 months in seasoned French oak. Dark ruby in color, it delivers an enticing bouquet of floral notes, spice box, black cherry, and blueberry. Full-bodied, ripe, and sweetly-fruited on the palate, it manages to retain a sense of elegance. This lengthy blend has enough structure to evolve for 1-2 years but there is no reason to delay your gratification. It is also an excellent value."
 
Click through to the WOW website page to easily make this your new Saturday or Sunday staple! 
 
Cheers!
