4 U-Line Wine Guide Matching Food and Wine Looking Behind the Label To most, wine is a delicious mystery. We purchase it, uncork it, and savor its taste and beauty. But there is so much more to true wine appreciation. Many secrets are simply too good to keep bottled up. Wine Selections Suggestions Selecting the right wine for the right occasion can sometimes be a seemingly awkward or difficult task for the beginning wine enthusiast.
The Cork: A Mystery on Its Own. Ideal Wine Storage Considerations Cork Presentation. The ritual of the presentation of the cork has a rich and fascinating history dating back to the late 1800's. A phylloxera (root louse) devastation to the vineyards severely limited the supply of great wines. Restaurateurs would remove labels on inferior wines and replace them with labels from superior wines.
Wine Stocking Recommendation Wine Rack Removal and Installation Specially designed horizontal wine racks properly positioned the bottles so the wine remains in contact with the cork and assure the cork does not become dry. To remove a rack from the cabinet: 1. Remove any bottles stored on the rack. 2. Grasp the end of the rack, and gently slide it out until it stops. Stock the unit as follows: 1. Stock the wine racks beginning with the lowest rack, at the back, and working forward.
Wood Trim Finishing Staining and final finish application: WARNING You MUST remove the wood trim from the unit for staining or finishing to prevent permanent damage to the inner liner of the unit. Allow stain or finish to dry thoroughly (at least 24 hours for each coat) following the product manufacturer’s instructions before reinstallation. Not following this warning may cause the inner liner of the unit to have a permanent odor, which the warranty will not cover.
5 Maintenance For Models without adjustable leveling feet: Light bulb Replacement IMPORTANT To replace the light bulb in your U-Line unit: 1. Find the light located at the top of the unit. Grasp the edges of the light housing lens (1) opposite the exposed tab and gently push the lens toward the tab (2). 2. Pull the edge of the lens down (1) and swing it out of the light housing. 1.
