Why?
As we’ve mentioned before, we love our wine. We buy our wine. We drink our wine. We recommend our wine. But, here’s the thing: with over 10,000 global wine brands, it’s tough to drink through the masses and figure out exactly what types of wines we like and more importantly, where we can find them.
In our quest for wine, we’ve noted something, we rely more and more on our friend’s wine selections. For example, I know that if LadyCork or FlyMama recommend a certain wine, chances are that I will like it. But, I’m not so sure about MamaCents or MamaTease. Yes, this is MamaCork talking. Despite their weak palates (kidding of course), the point is that we all develop a flavor profile that appeals us and we discern what we like and whose opinion we trust.
Some history: MamaCork started as a book club complemented by wine to enjoy during our robust discussions. But really, who are we kidding? In reality it was a wine club posing as an intellectual literary discussion. All the while, we were feverishly jotting down notes on the particular wines that we were sampling. One particularly riveting night of discussion on The Secrets of the YaYa Sisterhood and a few too many glasses of wine, we decided to formalize this club and open it up to the masses. And so, MamaCork was born.
