Burgundy, Piedmont and Champagne, one page at a time. Mud tasting monks, a furious duke, the Barolo Wars, the widow who changed Champagne and every cru that matters. The stories make the regions, the villages and the producers stick: for the exam, for the floor, and for the next bottle.
Every page stands alone: a village, a grape, a soil, a feud. Read one on the train and you have something you can use tonight, at the bottle shop or at table six.
You will forget a list of 33 grands crus. You will not forget the duke who banned a grape, or the monks who tasted the soil. Every fact in Uncorked is attached to a story so it stays put.
Volume 01 gets a beginner fluent. Volumes 02 to 05 go deep: soils, viticulture, cellar choices, the producers to know and a final exam in every book. Pitched at WSET 2 and 3 and French Wine Scholar depth.
Six real pages, one after another, open to anyone. The volumes behind them are free with your email.
WSET 2 and 3, French Wine Scholar, or your own syllabus. Villages, crus, soils and producers in a form you can revise a page at a time, with a final exam at the end of every deep dive so you know what stuck.
Sommeliers, bar and restaurant teams. Enough about each village and producer to talk about the bottle with confidence, and a story to tell while you pour it.
Start with any Volume 01. In 16 pages you will know what the label means, what to expect in the glass and what to order with dinner.
Read the region before you land. Know which hill you are standing on, whose cellar you are in and what to ask for.
Yes. All fifteen volumes, and everything we publish from here on. Your email is the key: enter it once, tap the link we send, and the device you tapped it on is in for 90 days.
It is how the reader knows you. We use it to send your sign in link and to keep your devices signed in. Tick the box under the field and we will also tell you when a new region comes out and give you a vote on the next one. Leave it unticked and you will only ever get sign in links. One click unsubscribes you from the news, and you keep reading either way.
Volume 01 of each region assumes you know nothing. Volumes 02 to 05 cover soils, vineyard work, cellar technique, classifications and key producers at the depth WSET 3 and French Wine Scholar students work at.
No. Uncorked is an independent 75cl publication and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any wine education or exam body. Use it alongside your course materials, not instead of them.
Yes. Each deep dive covers the villages, the producers and the stories behind the bottles you pour. Read the Barolo volume and you can talk Serralunga and La Morra with a guest who knows the difference.
You pick. Tick the news box when you sign in, then reply to any of our emails with the region you want. The most asked for region gets made next, and the people who asked for it get it first.
Sign in links, and news only if you asked for it. We never sell or share it.

What we collect. Your email address and the date and time you entered it. If you ticked the news box, that choice and the wording you agreed to. Once you are signed in, which volumes you open and finish, so we can see what people read and improve the series.
Why, and our legal basis. Your email is your key to the reader: we use it to send your sign in link and to keep your devices signed in (contract, GDPR Article 6(1)(b)). We send you news about new regions only if you ticked the box (consent, Article 6(1)(a)), and you can withdraw that with one click without losing access.
Who else handles it. They act on our instructions only. We never sell or rent your data.
How long we keep it. While you use the reader. Unsubscribing stops the news and keeps your key. Email us to delete your address altogether and we do it within 30 days, apart from a minimal record that you asked not to be contacted.
Cookies and analytics. This site sets no tracking cookies; the only cookie is the one that keeps you signed in once you have asked for a link. We count page views with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is cookieless, does not build a profile of you and is not shared with advertisers. When you arrive from one of our links or adverts, your browser keeps a note of which one (for example “instagram, spring campaign”) so we can tell which ones work. It reaches us only when you enter your email. Clearing your browser data removes it.
Your rights. You can withdraw consent to the news at any time with the unsubscribe link in every news email. You can also ask us for a copy of your data, to correct it, to delete it, or to stop using it, by emailing us. If you are in the EU or UK you can complain to your data protection authority.
Age. 75cl is for adults of legal drinking age. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone younger.
