Events at Our Boutique Hotel

Join us for a restorative morning of movement and mindfulness surrounded by the natural beauty of The Umstead Hotel and Spa.

Hosted in partnership with Dose Yoga, this guided outdoor yoga experience takes place beneath a canopy of woodlands on our Wedding Lawn, overlooking the rose garden and lake fountain. Designed to encourage presence, balance, and connection to the season, each session offers a tranquil start to the weekend within one of Cary’s most serene settings.

Following class, guests are invited to unwind in the Spa Courtyard with a complimentary seasonal fresh-pressed juice crafted on-site by Herons. Each guest will also receive a PATH water bottle to enjoy throughout the experience, supporting our continued sustainability efforts, along with palo santo to take home.

Yoga mats will be provided, though guests are welcome to bring their own.

Lost Grapes of Italy

Embark on a journey across Italy. Join us for our June Unbottled tasting as we rediscover rare, indigenous grape varieties that have nearly vanished from modern winemaking. These “lost” grapes, often cultivated for centuries in tiny pockets of the country, carry unique flavors shaped by their local soils, climates, and traditions. Taught by Wine Director Simon Kaufmann, this tasting transverses the country from the Alps to the Island of Sicily. Discover the diversity, history, and craftsmanship that make Italy the crown jewel of the wine world.

The masterclass will be held on Wednesday, June 24th in the Sycamore Room and begin at 6:30pm. A charcuterie display will be presented with the wines. Please call if you have any dietary restrictions or allergies. Tickets are $127 plus tax and service charge and are non-refundable.
