Divas Uncorked®, Inc. is an African American women wine club that was founded by Stephanie Browne. Divas Uncorked stands on its motto "Wine Savvy, not wine Snobby"; behind that motto is about women who dare to be educated on the many different types of wine, how wine can be used with the right delights, how its processed, the ingredients and the vineyard that grew the grapes.

This is what the Founder Stephanie Browne had in mind when she founded the organization Divas Uncorked. Stephanie felt that it was a need for women and minority women in particular to be savvy on the makings of the wine and the type of wine that's being sipped on by the individual. Stephanie's interest in learning about wine came about when she went out to dinner with friends whom she worked with, at these dinner's she would always order white, red  and at times the house wine. The idea sparked to Stephanie after a waiter at the restaurant asked what variety of wine she wanted and she was surprised that more varieties existed other than Chardonnay. Though she wasn't knowledgeable of the different distinctions she indulged, she began to educate herself and decided to form the club Divas Uncorked®, Inc.

Divas Uncorked® has hosted many international and domestic events to educate, entertain and sip. The club has also started a program to sponsor wine education dinners called Diva Dine where fifty to seventy-five women gather for an evening of wine education and fun. Divas Uncorked® has their own wine label entitled Divas Uncorked Chardonnay. 

 Divas Uncorked® was featured in Exhale Magazine of Boston (2012); Martha Vineyard Wine and Food Festival (Aug 2007); New Hampshire Chronicles (March 2007);  NBC Weekend Today Show (Sept. 2006); Boomers TV on PBS(Sept. 2005). Divas Uncorked and the Founder Stephanie Browne is featured in a book entitled Women of Vine written by Deborah Brenner.
