A quick note from us this week ❤️

If our hours or communication have seemed a little off, we wanted to share that we had a medical emergency in our family and needed to step away to take care of what mattered most. It was one of those weeks where a couple of things unraveled at once, and we’re incredibly grateful for your patience and kindness while we navigated it.

We’re thankfully on the mend and looking forward to seeing everyone today from 12–7pm!

No tasting this Saturday, but come by to stock up on wine, grab lunch from one of our awesome neighbors, and spend a happy afternoon in downtown Aiken. We’re grateful for this community more than you know.

🦞TODAY IS THE DAY!🦞

From 12-7pm today (Thursday May 7) we’ll have parked out front and delicious chilled wines inside to pair perfectly with your crustacean feast!

The weather will clear up this afternoon so that the yard dries out, so grab an umbrella just in case and head on out for one last blast with our friends at Cousins!

If you’ve been with us for a while, you know Cork & Cap has always been about one thing: helping Aiken discover great wine.

Over the last 5 years, we’ve loved seeing how you all use this space—lingering on the porch over a glass of wine, sharing bottles with friends, and settling into the easy rhythm that’s made Cork & Cap what it is.

We’re planning to carry that same feeling forward in our next chapter.

So… what’s next?

Thoughtfully chosen bottles, as always.
A rotating by-the-glass list.
A few good snacks.

Still right here in downtown Aiken.

More soon! 🍷

One of Napa's Rarest Treasures Can Be Yours!

Bella Oaks is one of those rare Napa sites where place precedes brand—a vineyard whose reputation was built long before its own label ever existed. Planted in the 19th century and sitting on the Rutherford Bench, the site achieved cult status through its long-standing relationship with Heitz Cella...
