We kept driving by Uncorked and curiosity finally got the better of us so we decided to stop in. The bartenders and owner Ali (who is adorable) were really cool and the whole place is really laid back. It was like a neighborhood bar except with wine instead. (But they do have some beers on tap.) They have a great selection of flights and all of the wines contained within are available by the glass. (The prices for the flights are quite reasonable.) My husband always asks for suggestions from the servers (honestly, they know best!) and the male bartender was right on with his red wine suggestion. They are also so friendly that if you don't know what you want they will let you try a bunch of different wines to taste them first. The best part was we were watching sports the whole time. I feel as if I could go there and ask them to put on the Sox or something and they happily would. It really lives up to its name as the "unpretentious wine bar."
The food was good, but not outstanding. The goat cheese and roasted red pepper flat bread was fantastic but the cheese plate paled in comparison to the cheese plate at Postino. However, they let us linger and drink...and eat....and drink...and linger. There are comfy couches, tables, and a patio to choose from.
Uncorked is located in the Promenade in Scottsdale. It's actually located within the office park portion and I would imagine gets busy on weekday nights. They also host private parties if you are looking for a nice small space.
