Columbia has some wonderful wineries and great retail shops. But where can you go to discover curated bottles, learn about new regions, and share a flight with fellow enthusiasts in an event built for you?

It was missing.

Until now.

Welcome to Cork & Cask, Columbia's new club dedicated to curated wine experiences. We're not a retail shelf you browse, but a community you join. We're founded on a simple idea: the best way to discover a great bottle is by sharing it with great people.

We are just getting started, and we're launching as a "build in public" project. That means we're starting with exclusive, members-only pop-up tastings right here in Columbia, and our first members won't just *join* the club—they'll help *build* it.

Become a Founding Member

This is a one-time opportunity to get in on the ground floor. Our Founding Members are the pioneers who will help shape the future of Cork & Cask.

Being a Founding Member means:

  • First Access to Tasting Dates: You'll be the first to know and get the first chance to reserve your spot at our exclusive, members-only pop-up tastings in Columbia.
  • Exclusive Founding Member Perks: We're locking in perks for our founders that will never be offered again, including limited guest passes to introduce friends to the club.
  • Help Shape the Club: You'll be part of the "build in public" journey. Through our member newsletter, you'll get behind-the-scenes access as we scout venues, curate our first tasting flights, and select bottles for the collection.

What We Do: The Pop-Up Tasting Experience

This isn't a lecture, and it's not a crowded happy hour. Our pop-up tastings are curated, social experiences.

Imagine a private event in a unique Columbia venue, where you and a small group of fellow members are guided through a hand-picked flight of wines. We'll explore Missouri's best, like Norton and Vignoles, alongside hidden gems from around the world.
