What makes an ideal wine bar? Great question, thanks for asking. The answers may be different depending on who you ask but we found this awesome spot in Saratoga, CA called Uncorked Wines, located on the main drag.
For us it was the trifecta of perfection:
1) Fantastic wine selection
2) Super cool vibe and windows for people watching while sipping on some vino and
3) A beyond fantastic owner (Patrick Rupert).
We STRONGLY encourage you to go in if you are ever nearby…it is truly fantastic!! You can taste through the wines that they have open at the wine bar…you can buy a glass to sip on while you hang out…or you can browse their broad selection of bottles for sale and take something home!
A sincere thank you to Patrick for making our stop at Uncorked Wine Bar so awesome, we will definitely be back!
Just in case you were wondering, it’s all about Fine Wines Without the Attitude at Uncorked!
Side note: welcome to March 2, 2011; the only one you’ll ever have so what will you do today to make it stand out? One life, one journey…live it one day at a time with all the passion you can! Cheers!!

Glad you made it to this wine shop, this is the one of them that is on my list that I want to visit when I’m in the area visiting my Aunt & Uncle who live in Los Altos Hills. Today two former co-workers and I will be having lunch at Cal Poly Pomona at “The Restaurant at Kellogg Ranch” (that I told you about) they have a vineyard and garden on the grounds so we will have fresh vegetables in our salad and a nice glass of Rose (which I will purchase 2 bottles). If I remember I’ll take a picture of the grounds to show you, (I’ll be your side-kick) hehehe. Cheers!
Bev, that’s so awesome. As I said before, I use to live in Claremont…beautiful area. Anyways, enjoy the heck out of that lunch and let us know how it goes!! Cheers!!
Okay Annie, you got a deal. Enjoy your day.
