FOUNDER'S STORY

UNCORKED was born after profound life transitions led Jamie to begin again in Europe — with a passport, a palate, and a quieter kind of courage.

At 60, Jamie moved to Europe and discovered that wine, travel, and meaningful conversation could become more than simple pleasures. They could become pathways back to connection — to place, to purpose, and to herself.

What began as a personal rediscovery became the foundation for UNCORKED: a way to bring people together through the stories, cultures, and shared moments found around the table. From that realization, UNCORKED was born.

“Wine became less about collecting and more about coming home to myself—one place, one table, one honest conversation at a time.”

  • Story

    We follow the human stories behind each place and pour before we ever talk about labels.

  • Connection

    Shared tables and honest conversation turn a tasting day into lasting companionship.

  • Reinvention

    A new chapter can start at any age—one journey, one glass, one brave yes at a time.

For women in transition

Retreat into a season of slower beauty, honest conversation, and a gentler way forward.

Designed for women craving space to listen inward, each gathering blends wine, reflection, and shared table moments that restore your sense of self.

The UNCORKED Retreat Circle

Across a few unhurried days, you’ll taste with intention, speak freely, and be met by a group of women navigating change with courage and care.

Slow beauty rituals

From vineyard mornings to candlelit pours, each moment invites you to notice texture, aroma, and the quiet pleasure of moving slowly.

Deep conversation

At the table and beyond it, open-hearted dialogue creates belonging and reminds you that change is easier when it is shared.

Meaningful reset

Leave with clearer inner language, renewed energy, and simple practices that help you carry this grounded feeling into daily life.

If a full retreat is not your season, a curated day trip is a beautiful way to begin.

Join us for a single day of mindful tasting, slow travel, and grounded connection—an easy first step into the UNCORKED experience.
