Uncorked & Cultured

The Big Sip

Jun 17 2021 • 51 mins

The power of the internet is truly amazing! Two strangers connecting from opposite sides of the Coast through technology, both on a mission to amplify and elevate the BIPOC experience in wine. That's exactly what happened when I met Angela McCrae, powerhouse woman and founder of Uncorked & Cultured, a media company and lifestyle brand that curates original content, e-commerce and global experiences to consciously connect consumers with brands that share the same ideals. Uncorked & Cultured is unapologetically connecting BIPOC culture and the diaspora to wine, wellness, culture and adventure! Prior to launching Uncorked & Cultured, Angela was living in Los Angeles and producing work for NBC Universal. She has also managed communications and marketing for three PBS Documentaries and hosted events at Sundance Film Festival! The knowledge and experience she brings is truly unmatched! Throughout her life experiences she has realized there are three key elements that have led to her success: recognizing the importance of understanding the "self," alignment (everything being aligned in your life!), and a "now or never" mentality. This notion of living with intention in every space you operate in creates opportunities for growth and learning, leading to a realization that anything is possible! By creating a destination for people of color to see themselves in wine, wellness, culture, travel, and adventure, she is paving a path for those living in this present moment, and the generations to come.  From the virtual world to in real life, it was truly an honor to connect and celebrate with Angela for all she's done and continues to do, and I am forever inspired. Her work has garnered the attention and financial investment of reputable organizations such as the African American Vintners Association and Napa Valley Vintners Association to continue amplifying the BIPOC experience and create waves of change in an industry where it's long overdue. It's because of this collective movement that we're able to be elevate and celebrate! Grab a glass, Sip Consciously, follow Uncorked & Cultured on social media, invest in black businesses and enjoy Episode 20!
