Wine, culture, food and community come together for an unforgettable evening at Sip & Spice: An Intimate Wine Dinner, presented by Cork Dorx.
On Saturday, October 3, 2026, Cork Dorx invites wine lovers, food enthusiasts and experience seekers throughout the DMV to gather at Anchored Media Studios in Laurel, Maryland for an intimate evening centered around thoughtfully selected wines and Caribbean-inspired flavors.
This is more than a traditional wine tasting. Sip & Spice is designed to create conversation, connection and a memorable culinary experience.
Good wine. Bold flavors. Real connections.
Wine Paired With Caribbean Flavor
Sip & Spice brings together the expertise of Treena Boyd, Owner of Cork Dorx, and Chef Marqués Julius, Owner of Sweet & Spicy Fusion Bistro.
Guests will experience a curated pairing of wine and Caribbean-inspired cuisine designed to demonstrate how the right wine can complement spices, textures and bold flavors.
Whether you are already passionate about wine or simply interested in discovering something new, the evening offers an approachable way to explore wine pairing while enjoying an intimate dining atmosphere.
Cork Dorx believes wine should be experienced, not simply consumed.
“It’s more than wine. It’s a vibe.”
A Different Kind of Maryland Wine Experience
Sip & Spice is part of the Cork Dorx mission of connecting Wine. Culture. Experiences.
Rather than creating a traditional classroom-style wine tasting, Cork Dorx events are designed around discovery, conversation and community.
Guests can expect an atmosphere where great wine meets food, culture and meaningful connections.
For those searching for unique wine events in Maryland, DMV wine tasting experiences, date-night ideas, food and wine events, or something different to do in Laurel, Sip & Spice offers a more intimate alternative to larger festivals and crowded tasting events.
