My husband and I visited Racine and stopped by Uncorkt to see what it was about. It's a large space filled with wine, beer, and a little shop. There are tables and seating towards the front of the store and an event space upstairs. They have large coolers filled with individual bottles of beer, wine and other beverages. I was impressed by the variety I believe Uncorkt has something for everyone to indulge in. They also have a nice selection of snacks. I was a little underwhelmed with the customer service. There were two employees working and a couple of customers enjoying a bottle of wine when we arrived. None of the staff made eye contact with us or said hello. We browsed around a bit and when I picked a beverage I took it to the counter to ask about their process....do we pay then find a seat, do we start a tab, etc. The person that I spoke with informed me I had to pay for my beverage, and was very short with me when I asked clarification questions - I couldn't get a smile or laugh out of her. I'm sure masks make it hard to understand each other, but the whole interaction felt awkward and not very welcoming. Later a local family that this employee knew came in, and she was very nice warm to them, so I guess she just didn't want to warm up to me. My husband said the other employee was helpful & friendly. We enjoyed sitting by the window and watching the activity along the street while enjoying out beverages, and I would return. read more

Uncorkt - So many beers & wines to choose from - Wine Bars Near Me - Racine, Wisconsin

See all

Experience was very lack luster, station 1 User Tony B. 08/09/23 04:43PM Our clerk/bartender was actually an older woman with glasses (not the owner Tony B) that wasn't too accommodating, almost shorted us (my boyfriend and his mom were also with me) on a round of our flights, and was a little, uptight?...overall. Made me feel silly thinking I was mistaken,....Then hollered across the floor to get my attention to explain how she was mistaken. Very weird vibes overall. Bar was full so we sat near the windows at the tables and mostly had to go back to refill our flights . Great wine, but service and courtesy was skewed! Will not be going back. read more

Need a place to pour over a book? Get some stuff done on the laptop? Catch up with a friend? Step out with your beau? Work on that new song with your Beats? A much needed break from window shopping? Get in out of the cold? All while nursing a beverage and perhaps some choice snacks. This place is a welcome respite. A solid selection and variety of both beer, wine, and cider to choose from. Assorted snacks, the foo foo kind. I'm told in biz 16 years and the space is plenty big enough to socially distance successfully. The folks here make it easy, they will provide you a disposable cup if you need it. Anxious about wasting or being able to finish the wine you purchase? They have you covered, you can either take the remainder home or they have smaller bottles available in some brands as well. Uncorkt can also put together a gift basket for you. read more

Uncorkt - a bottle of beer, a can of beer, and a blue cup on a table - Wine Bars Near Me - Racine, Wisconsin

Best customer service I've ever experienced. I called to ask if they had a wine I had on the Spring Wine walk. A red blend with a mustached dog on the label. Tony looked and couldn't find it. I thanked him for trying. 5 minutes later and my phone rang. He not only found out the name, he said he would try to get more and let me know! Bigode Red Blend rocks almost as much as Tony! read more

We were provided with a gift card for Uncorkt and happy we had a chance to check it out. Setting is quaint and comfortable. Cindy guided us through a flight of wines, all of which were excellent. She also helped us select a wine to take home and provided local dinner recommendations too. I Great local business! read more

The store itself looks nice and there is a decent selection of wine. The woman who was working was quite rude and unfriendly.

We rented the upstairs for a baby shower and everyone was more than accommodating! The prices were decent and the space was a very good size! It wasn't a huge baby shower but we wanted a larger space (rather than someone's house) due to COVID. So this worked out perfectly! You could easily have a larger event here, maybe up to 100 or so people? The parking is a little bit of a pain but there is a parking garage around the corner. My suggestion- park in front and unload your stuff (if there is parking available) then go to the garage. read more

Great place for small events! welcoming atmosphere with huge selections from the vineyard.

An absolutely wonderful and amazing place! I was spending a weekend with a friend, and as we were exploring downtown, a woman came up to us and said, "you have to try Uncorkt. It's a women's owned wine bar, shop, and there are also cooking classes held there." Truer words have never been spoken! My friend I and visited twice! The atmosphere is so very inviting, and the two owners couldn't be more lovely. The also recommended we try Olde Madrid for dinner, which was absolutely delicious. If you'd love a nice glass of wine, warm company, and wonderful conversation, please go to Uncorkt. read more

My husband and I went there for a glass of wine after dinner. We have been there a few times and always the same scenario. The two ladies working seemed to be bothered by us asking questions about the wine. They seemed to be more focused on their couple of friends at the bar. We won't be back read more

We have been going to Uncorkt for the past five years during our travels. Always love the service, the store options and the family atmosphere!! Definitely a stop on our trips to Racine! read more

Lots of kitchy gifts, pleanty of wine selections, but the best was the tasting menu - $5.00 for 5 wines? That works for me. Hours are somewhat limited, only open until 8pm on Saturday and 6 pm on weekdays. I would visit incorkt again. read more

Awesome place with awesome employees always a joy hanging here. Great selection of wine! Also some beer options.

What a cool little joint! Wine tasting was really diverse and enjoyable. Great local crowd.

My wife and I had our rehearsal dinner in the upstairs room at Uncorkt. Everything went smoothly, the staff was so kind, helpful and professional throughout the evening. They were also great beforehand in helping with wine and beer selections. They were so accommodating for any request we made and the room rates are very reasonable as well. Keep in mind they don't have a kitchen, so you will need to cater in food for your event. We had food brought in from three different caterers/restaurants and it all went smoothly. All in all, my wife and I (and our families and friends) were very pleased in our decision to have our rehearsal dinner at Uncorkt! read more

Was in town with my boyfriend for a concert. Loved this place,but most off all enjoyed talking and laughing with the staff and locals. Wine was good and we got a bottle to take home. read more

This store has a great selection of wines, micro-brew beer, gifts, and select food items to pair with the beverages. They offer tastings every day with the selection changing weekly. The staff is very knowledgeable and can steer you towards new items based on your personal preferences. There is also a private party room upstairs where they have classes and you could rent it for your own event too! 2012 Update - I do have to confirm the place is much less personable than when they first opened. Staff definitely chat around with each other a bit much and should probably pay more attention to customers. read more

Attending a wedding upstairs at Uncorkt. The service was really nice and the room was decorated beautifully. A sampling of wines was served which I found to be nice because I could try different ones without having to purchase several glasses. Downstairs in the main area is a cute little store that sells all types of wines, beers and anything wine related. Nice gifts and nick knacks too. I do not live near but was glad to be able to check it out. Would recommend for an event. read more

Overpriced, snotty/snobby staff. They think that they know something about wine, but they only know what they are told and they parrot that back to you, or they pimp the wines that are obviously on special or that a rep told them to sell. I used to live in The Bay Area of California and I would go to wine country once a month, so I got to know the wineries therein, coming home and having my sister tell me about this place, I thought that I would go get my mum a nice bottle of wine. Looking for a few wineries I knew, not only were prices DOUBLED, but when I asked about a few wines, I was told that those were not good wines and steered towards lesser wines at a similar price point. Needless to say, the staff was pimping those because they DIDN'T know and were selling towards profit and not taste. I'd go to Piggly Wiggly for wine before ever setting foot inside here again. Thank god I live in CA and can just run around the Central Coast and Santa Ynez Valley and get my wines there. read more

I was so excited when I first found Uncorkt, as I love all things wine! Sadly, I was extremely disappointed by the poor (rude) customer service, even while tasting with friends. I have been here twice now, and both times felt like my business/customer satisfaction was of no importance. I will not return. read more

Tony at Uncorkt has been a great host for wine tasting and beer tasting. I have also attended several parties in his upstairs party rental room and they have worked out very well. They have a friendly staff and my visit is always a lot of fun. read more

Wonderful atmosphere, tons of choices. There is wine tasting daily 6 wines usually 3 white & 3 reds for only $7.00 and if you purchase any of the wines from the tasting you also get a discount that day. All the staff are very knowledgeable, friendly and make the experience fun. I love this place! read more

very knowledgeable employees on both wine and craft beer. Great selection of craft beer, especially Veteran Beer Company's. Make your own 6 packs to enjoy at the bar. read more

Tony and his team go above and beyond for everything. We've had events upstairs, in our facility and downstairs as well - and each one has been a hit! We're always well taken care of, above and beyond our expectations. Not only do they have a huge selection of wines, but they also have a TON of microbrews. And behind that comes boat loads of knowledge and willingness to help! Check it out! read more

The NEW owner at Uncorkt, Tony, is both friendly and knowledgeable. They have tastings available every day. A very friendly staff, and great atmosphere makes this one of my favorite places to go. My husband prefers beer, and they have a great selection of beers too! read more

A neat place to meet people over a glass of wine or beer. Great staff, very knowledgeable and helpful. They can advise you on selecting the appropriate wine or beer from their varied offering. I frequently sit at the tasting bar, enjoying my selection of wine and chatting with others doing the same. And, they have a wonderful room for events as well. Come see for yourself. Jay read more

Great place. Awesome wine and beer selection. Atmosphere is perfect for meeting friends.

This is my favorite downtown hangout. Every week you can sample a flight of 6 wines, chosen by the Wine Divas. Wine is also available by the glass as are craft beers. The wine store has the best selection in town. read more

I do not feel some of these reviews are valid or they are posted from really pissey people. I think the new store owner Tony is warming up to being in business. I'm sure it is somewhat overwhelming to know everyone and everything. However, the selections of wines are always good and the sisters talked about by Missy is way off base. I have lived in Racine for nine years and this is my go to store because Victoria and Cindy are super knowledgeable and extremely friendly. It is probably the biggest reason why I choose to shop here. Keep up the good work. read more

My wife and I never miss an opportunity to stop into Uncorkt when we are in town. What a great asset for downtown Racine! The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable and have always been very helpful. We live in the California Central Coast wine region and are surrounded by world class wineries. We used to live in the Bay area and visited Napa and Sonoma routinely. So we are lucky to have access to so many great wineries, yet the 2 or 3 times per year we get to Racine we always make it a point to stop at Uncorkt. We have been going there for years and were pleased that the new owner Tony has made a great place even better. We've have always been pleased with the recommendations given and have never felt like we were being pushed to buy one wine over another. What a great place!! read more

Tony and his staff are amazing. They treat you like family and are helpful and knowledgeable. They have great tastings and pairing classes.

We used Uncorkt's upstairs space for our daughter's wedding and reception. The staff were very helpful from the beginning plans to the very end when we walked out the door after a lovely evening of celebration. The space was great for our smallish group and worked well for both the ceremony and dinner reception followed by dancing. read more
