You pay every month. Most of those tastings go to waste. We fix that.
If someone you know holds a membership, you can go. That's it.
Someone in your network already has a key to Opus One, Harlan, Flowers. They just haven't had a clean way to hand it to you.
Request a tasting through a friend. They approve in one tap. You show up. No calls, no awkward asks, no expired plans.
You can only see what your network can unlock. Every tasting is through a real relationship.
Every guest arrives through a personal introduction from one of your own members. Not a stranger from a booking site. A vouched visitor who already belongs in the room.
We'll be in touch within 48 hours.
We're opening city by city — starting with Napa, Sonoma, and Los Angeles. Drop your email and we'll let you know when we're in your area.
Invite only. No spam. Unsubscribe any time.
That's exactly why we named ourselves Share The Cork.
In wine, "corked" is one of the worst things a sommelier can say. It means the bottle is tainted — ruined by TCA, a compound that makes wine smell like wet cardboard and taste flat. When a server brings a bottle to the table and says the words, it goes back. When you pull a cork at home and notice that musty smell, the whole bottle goes down the drain.
Wine corks themselves don't fare much better. People collect them in jars as decoration, use them for DIY crafts, or just throw them in the trash. The physical cork — the thing that sealed something precious — gets discarded without a second thought.
We thought that was a pretty good metaphor for what happens to wine club memberships.
Wine club members pay $150 to $500 a month for access most people will never have. They get four, six, eight tastings a year at some of the most sought-after estates in the country. And most of those tastings expire unused — not because members don't want to share them, but because sharing them is awkward, logistically messy, and dependent on a system that wasn't built for it. The cork seals something worth experiencing. And then it just sits there.
Every unused tasting is a cork that never got shared. We exist to change that — so the people you love can experience the wines you love, at the places that mean something to you.
Share The Cork is a platform for wine club members to share their tasting access with the people they actually want to bring. Members register their memberships, share specific tastings with their circle, and approve requests in one tap. Our concierge team handles coordination with the winery — members don't make a single call.
Guests can only see what the people in their personal network have unlocked for them. No public directory, no anonymous requests, no strangers. Every tasting happens through a real relationship.
The name isn't a coincidence. We took something the wine world treats as a problem — the cork — and made it the thing worth sharing. Because the best bottles were always meant to be opened with the right people. We just make it easier to figure out who those people are and get them through the door.
