Uncorked Events
‘Best of the Best’ Summer Solstice Party
[ May 8, 2013 to June 20, 2013. ] Phoenix Hotel/Chambers
Thursday, June 20th, 6-9pm
THE CELEBRATION
It’s been an incredible seven years for Uncorked Events. We’ve tried thousands of wines together at over 80 sold-out events. To kick off year eight in style, please join us for our one-of-a-kind 7th anniversary party.
The theme is ‘Best of the Best’ and you will have the chance to try a vast array of our favorite wines from the last seven years in one evening. Virtually every wine will be 90pt + rated, with many small production, hard to find gems.
And again this year, the tasting not only takes place at a prime outdoor location, it also coincides with the summer solstice (technically the next day, but you get the picture), with natural light all the way till the 9pm finish.
THE WINE
The mix of wines will be exceptional with ultra boutique wineries, cult classics, top importers and luxury distributors all pouring. You’ll have the opportunity to taste over 150 wines from every corner of the globe.

THE STUNNING VENUE
Hosting this very special night is the stunningly renovated Phoenix Hotel in conjunction with Chambers Eat+Drink Restaurant, located in the heart of downtown San Francisco. So you’ll be sipping top-rated wines poolside in in the lush courtyard of one of the top outdoor spots in all of the city.
The space has been fully refurbished with beautiful and sleek new furniture, landscaping and even a fire and water feature. After the event, we highly recommend you make a reservation for diner at the gorgeous ‘rock-star chic’ Chambers Eat+Drink.
