An Open Letter to our Members

San Diego Uncorked Farewell

With a heavy heart, our board has decided to fold San Diego Uncorked.  It's been wonderful hosting monthly wine & social events for the public as Uncorked from 2005 through 2008, and as our predecessor organization Wine Brats, from 2000 through 2003.  Our current board no longer has the time to devote to running the organization due to starting new families & increasing career demands. 

We would like to sincerely thank all of those who have made it possible to run our organization through the years … especially our wine sponsors (impossible without them), venues, previous board members, volunteers … and of course, you the public, who have supported and attended our events.

Please be assured your email address remains safe with us.  We will not sell or give away our membership (over 1000 members) distribution list to anyone.  We will be sending out a few more emails to you soon.  Such as a note to let you know we'll be making some donations to a few local charities from our remaining cash flow.

That being said, our business model still works: a non-profit, all volunteer organization hosting low cost wine events for the under-40 crowd (wineries still have a tough time to reach this demographic).  Just as Uncorked was reborn from Wine Brats, you too could start-up your own wine organization using the Uncorked/Wine Brat model.  We will share with you our knowledge, organizational structure and materials we have developed over the years, as well starting you off with a few cases of tasting glasses.  Just send me a note and I'll help facilitate your group's first meeting (richi@sandiegouncorked.com).

We wish you all well and hope you continue to enjoy the wonderful world of wine.

Cheers,

San Diego Uncorked Board
