From California Roots to Global Pour
At California Corks, we started with a simple passion: to connect people with California’s incredible wineries and the stories behind every cork popped. What began as a directory for boutique and family-owned wineries across the Golden State has grown into something much bigger—a curated celebration of the world’s most inspiring drinks and the people who craft them.
Our Mission
To spotlight the best wines, wineries, breweries, and distilleries—starting in California and expanding globally—while honoring the craft, community, and culture behind every bottle.
What We Cover
Whether you’re a weekend wine taster, a curious craft beer lover, or a collector of rare spirits, California Corks brings you closer to the source:
• Winery Profiles & Travel Guides – Explore tasting rooms, vineyard stays, and wine regions from Paso Robles to Patagonia.
• Craft Beer Features – Meet the brewers behind small-batch innovations and uncover the best taprooms around the world.
• Distillery Spotlights – We showcase how local ingredients and heritage shape unforgettable spirits from Kentucky bourbon trails to Tokyo whisky houses.
• Stories That Matter – We dig deeper than tasting notes—sharing the hands, histories, and heart behind every pour.
