libby_uncorkedWe had such a great time pouring wines last night at CityPlace Uncorked. Thanks to everyone who helped make the experience memorable. A huge thanks to Republic National Fine Wine Manager, Craig Diamond, for filling our table with some truly excellent wines. It was an honor to pour them!

We loved our wines, and so did the crowd. The 2006 ZD Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa was an early favorite that kept many people coming back for more.
It was also rewarding to introduce some excellent lesser-known wines, like the 2006 Antu Ninquén Syrah/Cabernet (a powerhouse wine, but surprisingly smooth!) and the 2006 King Estate Vin Glacé Pinot Gris (Sweet’s personal favorite).

But the highlight was definitely the 2006 Masi Costasera Amarone Classico. What a smooth and elegant wine!

And to all the wonderful, amazing people who stopped by and talked wine with us, you made our night!

Please, don’t be a stranger! Follow, comment, and find us at future events! We love you all!

About the Swirl Girls

JGwen (Dry)
What I drink: Old world reds, medium-bodied, dry, earthy. I've been into Spanish Riojas lately, but I recently tried a great Burgundy at a wine tasting in Lake Worth...


Lynn (Bold)
What I drink: I've been a red wine lady (is that like a red hat lady?) for years, though dry white wines woo me well.

Jennifer (Earthy)
What I drink: I prefer reds, although I can't deny the delight of a Riesling on a hot summer day.
