Matching Food and Wine  
5 U-Line Wine Guide  
Although there are no hard fast rules for matching wine to food,  
observe some guidelines. Delicate dishes should be accompanied  
by lighter more delicate wines. Full-flavored foods should be  
matched with fuller-bodied wines.  
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.  
As a general rule, one should aim to ascend in flavor and quality of  
wines served.  
Serve a:  
DRY wine  
Before a:

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. We would therefore like to present you with a few  
suggestions which may provide a little more confidence and  
enjoyment when choosing and serving your wines.  
WHITE wine  
YOUNG wine  
LIGHT-BODIED wine  
OLD wine  
FULL-BODIED wine  
Any step back in quality will be noticed. If a fine wine is tasted prior  
to a lesser wine, many of the fine wine’s subtle qualities may be  
missed.  
When selecting wines, keep an open mind and do not be afraid to  
be adventurous. Do not view the subject of wine so seriously it  
discourages you from learning and discovering for fear of  
embarrassment if something is incorrect. Wine is best viewed as a  
hobby and enjoyed.  
Common Food and Wine Matches

When assembling your collection, try not to become obsessed  
with “Vintages.Although a chart can be a useful tool,  
generalizations about a specific year have led more than one  
collector to disappointment. Often an “Off Year” will provide a  
better value and more drinking enjoyment.

The primary guideline to the subject of wine is your own palate.  
Do not be afraid to make mistakes. Experiment, discover, but most  
of all, enjoy yourself and your new U-Line product.  
A Toast to Wine Truths  
Like the grapes themselves, many wine myths have been cultivated  
over the centuries.  
Guide To Common Styles Of Wine  
Myth 1: Most wines taste better when aged.  
Red Wines  
Truth: In fact, less than 5% of wines produced today are meant to  
be aged. Most wines are crafted to be consumed within the first  
one to two years.  
Full-Bodied Dry  
California  
French  
Italian  
Zinfandel, Cabernet  
Rhone, Chateauneuf-du-  
Pape  
Barbaresco, Barolo  
Myth 2: Wines should be uncorked and decanted allowing them  
to “breathe.”  
Medium-Bodied Dry  
Light-Bodied Dry  
California  
French  
Pinot Noir  
Bordeaux, Burgundy  
Truth: To breathe or not breathe? While it is better to allow a  
young tannic Red to breathe in a glass or decanter to soften the  
tannins, an old Red reaches a stage in its life where it should be  
enjoyed soon after opening. Allow an old Red to breathe for a  
short time to dissipate any off odors. Most white wines can be  
served, ideally, 10-15 minutes after opening.  
French  
Italian  
Beaujolais  
Chianti, Bardolino  
White Wines  
Full-Bodied Dry  
California  
French  
Chardonnay  
Montrachet, Meursault  
Puligny-Montrachet  
Myth 3: When age worthy wines peak, they must be consumed  
almost immediately.  
Medium-Bodied Dry  
California  
French  
Sauvignon-Blanc  
Pouilly-Fuisse, Sancerre,  
Vouvray, Graves  
Truth: Most great wines reach a plateau period rather than a peak.  
Great Bordeaux’s may have as much as a 10-year plateau before  
fading.  
Light-Bodied Dry  
French  
Chablis, Muscadet, Pouilly-  
Fume  
Full-Bodied, Very Sweet  
Germany  
Frency  
Hungary  
Beerenauslese  
Sauternes  
Tokay  
Myth 4: Wine color does not change with aging.  
Truth: As red wines age they get lighter in color while whites get  
Medium-Bodied, Semi-  
Sweet  
California  
Germany  
Gewurtztraminer  
Liebfraumilch  
darker.  
Light-Bodied Off Dry

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. This made it necessary for patrons to protect themselves by  
checking the branding on the cork to ensure that what they  
ordered was, in fact, what they were served.  
Temperature: The most important element about storage  
temperature is stability. If wine is kept in a stable environment  
between 40°F and 65°F, it will remain sound. A small 1-2 degree  
temperature fluctuation within a stable environment is acceptable.  
Larger temperature fluctuations can affect the corks ability to seal,  
allowing the wine to “leak” from the bottle.  
Humidity: The traditional view on humidity maintains that wines  
should be stored on their sides in 50% - 80% relative humidity to  
ensure cork moisture and proper fit in the bottle. Contemporary  
wisdom suggests that the cork surface is too small to be impacted  
by humidity. Further the cork is sealed with a metal or wax capsule  
making humidity penetration impossible. The concept of a humid  
storage environment was derived from the necessity of wineries to  
maintain moisture in their cellars to keep wooden barrel staves  
swollen, preventing wine evaporation and product loss. In fact,  
vineyards estimate as much as a 10% product loss per year due to  
evaporation while wine is aging in the wooden barrels. Humidity,  
however, was not intended for the modern home cellar where  
wine is stored in glass bottles with sealed corks.  
When presented with a cork today, feel it to check for its integrity,  
read and match the branding on the cork to the bottle and set it  
aside. There is little to be learned from the cork. The proof is in  
the wine.  
Corked" wines. If you’ve ever had a wine that smelled or tasted  
of mold, you’ve experienced a wine that may have been “corked.”  
Today, between five and eight percent of wines are tainted with  
Trichloroanisole (TCA). This substance, found naturally in plants  
and trees, is imparted to the wine through the cork. Corked wines  
are a major concern for winemakers as it destroys millions of cases  
per year and puts reputations at stake. Amazing as it may seem  
twist-off caps may offer a better alternative and many great  
wineries in California, Australia and New Zealand are pioneering  
the trend.  
Light: UV rays are not only harmful to people, they are damaging  
to wines - especially those in clear bottles. Since oxygen molecules  
in wine absorb UV rays, wine should never be stored in direct light  
for long periods of time.  
Common Tasting Terms  
Vibration: Provided that sediment is left undistributed and  
particles are not suspended, vibration in a storage environment is  
not an issue. Wines can become flat or tired when voids and  
vacuums are created inside the wine bottle. In order to create  
voids and vacuums within a liquid, aggressive motion or shaking of  
the wine bottle would have to occur.  
Te rm in olog y  
Description  
Acidity  
A critical element of wine that is responsible for  
preserving the wines freshness. Excess acidity  
results in an overly tart and sour wine.  
Balance  
Body  
A desired trait where tannin, fruit and acidity are  
in total harmony. Wines with good balance tend  
to age gracefully.  
The Right Temperature for Wine  
The weight and presence of wine in the mouth  
provided by the alcohol and tannin level. Full-  
bodied wines tend to have this strong  
concentration.  
Te mpe rature  
Wines  
Red  
Approximately 60°F (15°C)  
50°F - 55°F (10°C -12°C)  
Approximately 45°F (7°C)  
White  
Sparkling  
Bouquet  
Complex  
The blending of a wine’s aroma within the bottle  
over a period of time, caused by volatile acidity.  
A subjective term often used in tasting. A wine is  
said to be complex if it offers a variety of flavors  
and scents that continue to evolve as it develops.  
Wine Captain® Models - A Touch of Elegance  
In 1985 U-Line was the first North American appliance  
manufacturer to develop a residential wine storage unit, the Wine  
Captain®. Each U-Line Wine Captain® model is designed to  
impress and inspire anyone with an interest in wine by providing  
cellar conditions in stylish, undercounter units. U-Line Wine  
Captain® models offer stable storage temperatures, a 50% internal  
relative humidity and protection from UV light rays. U-Line has the  
largest product offering available, making storing, presenting, and  
sharing your wine effortless and elegant.  
Flabby  
Full-Bodied  
Lean  
A wine that lacks structure, or is heavy to the  
taste, lacks acidity.  
Wine high in alcohol and extract, generally  
speaking, fills the mouth, powerful.  
Generally describes wines that are slim, lacking of  
generosity or thin.  
Oaky  
A desirable flavor imparted to wine if done in  
moderation. Most wines are aged in oak barrels  
one to three years, thereby receiving this toasty  
oak characteristic. However, if a weak wine is left  
in contact too long with an oak barrel it will tend  
to be overpowered with an oaky taste.  
Tannin  
Tannins are extracted from the grape skins and  
stems and are necessary for a well-balanced red  
wine. Tannins are easily identified in wine tasting  
as the drying sensation over the gums. Tannins  
generally fade as a wine ages.

Defrosting  
8 Cleaning  
Minor Frost on the rear wall, or visible through the evaporator  
plate vents is normal and will melt during each off cycle. If there is  
excessive build-up of 1/4" or more, manually defrost the unit.  
Exterior Cleaning  
Stainless door panels, and handles can discolor when exposed  
to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, saltwater or cleaners with  
bleach.  
Ensure the door is closing and sealing properly.  
High ambient temperature and excessive humidity can also  
produce frost.  
Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a good  
quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner polish monthly. For best  
results use Claire® Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner, which can  
be purchased from U-Line Corporation (Part Number 173348).  
Comparable products are acceptable. Frequent cleaning will  
remove surface contamination that could lead to rust. Some  
installations may require cleaning weekly.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT use an ice pick or other sharp instrument to  
help speed up defrosting. These instruments can puncture  
the inner lining or damage the cooling unit. DO NOT use  
any type of heater to defrost. Using a heater to speed up  
defrosting can cause personal injury and damage to the  
inner lining.  
Do not clean with steel wool pads.  
Do not use stainless steel cleaners or polishes on any  
glass surfaces.  
Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass cleaner.  
IMPORTANT  
Do not use cleaners not specifically intended for  
stainless steel on stainless surfaces (this includes glass,  
tile and counter cleaners).  
The drain pan was not designed to capture the water  
created when manually defrosting. To prevent water from  
overflowing the drain pan and possibly damaging water  
sensitive flooring the unit must be removed from  
cabinetry.  
If any surface discoloring or rusting appears, clean it quickly  
with Bon-Ami® or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser® and a  
nonabrasive cloth. Always clean with the grain. Always finish  
with Claire Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner or comparable  
product to prevent further problems.  
WARNING  
Using abrasive pads such as Scotchbrite™ will cause  
the graining in the stainless to become blurred.  
Do not attempt to manually defrost your unit without  
first contacting customer care. The unit must be  
removed from installation to properly defrost.  
Attempting to defrost the unit without following  
proper procedure may result in substantial water  
damage.  
Rust not cleaned up promptly can penetrate the  
surface of the stainless steel and complete removal of  
the rust may not be possible.  
Interior Cleaning  
Disconnect power to the unit.  
Clean the interior and all removed components using a mild  
nonabrasive detergent and warm water solution applied with a  
soft sponge or non-abrasive cloth.  
Rinse the interior using a soft sponge and clean water.  
Do not use any solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. These types  
of cleaners may transfer taste to the interior products and  
damage or discolor the lining.

For nearly five decades and three generations, U-Line continues to be the leader in innovation, quality and value in  
the premium built-in undercounter ice making, refrigeration and wine preservation market. U-Line has captivated  
those with an appreciation for the finer things with exceptional functionality, style, inspired innovation and attention  
to even the smallest details. We are known and respected for our unwavering dedication to product design, quality  
and selection.  
In 1962, Henry Uihlein founded U-Line Corporation as an outgrowth of Ben-Hur Freezer Company and was the first  
to develop and patent an automatic stand-alone undercounter residential ice maker. His foresight and determination  
to develop new ideas and to succeed when there were no clear guidelines or solutions are evident today. The newest  
Uihlein generation continues to build upon the family’s innovative legacy at the Milwaukee, Wisconsin based business  
by providing continuity and vision from which new designs and technology continue to be born.
