Ordering Food at Sauer Grapes

Sauer Grapes is first and foremost a wine shop. I do offer a simple menu of breads, spreads, nuts and unique cheeses but I ask that if you would like your food served in a timely manner, please order ahead of time. This is especially true when there are events taking place at nearby venues. I do my best, but for the most part, I’m a one person operation and it can take me a while to prepare even simple menu items when the shop is busy. So please, help me serve you in a timely manner and email ahead at mariedsauer@gmail.com, let me know how many are in your party and what you would like to order. I hate disappointing my customers and this is the easiest way to make sure everyone is happy with their service! — Marie

BILL TRUE BIO

BILL TRUE BIO

Wine has been a passion of mine since I was introduced to my first serious wine at a business dinner in the early 1990’s. The wine was a 1987 Robert Mondavi Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, and it captivated me immediately. I was fascinated by the complexity of the wine and how the flavors and finish evolved as I drank it. “Wow”, I thought, “this is a far cry from the boxed wine I had at graduate school seminars!” 

 

Over countless glasses of wine with friends and family, I began envisioning one day owning a vineyard, producing wine, and having a coveted spot of my own in Napa Valley. My vision began to evolve after repeatedly driving by the small family vineyards that were nestled between cult producers and big wine brands. “Instead of buying a vineyard, why not support smaller growers and family farms? Surely, I could purchase grapes and produce premium, high quality cabernet sauvignon from some of these vineyards.” Fortunately for me, my friendship with Brian began to develop about the same time. After all these years working in chemistry and science, I finally found the route to follow my passions and leverage my skills and experiences for something I truly love!

 

B True Wines is a culmination of friendships, passion for wine and the relationships that are fostered along the way. As we share at the core of who we are, wine is all about the people. We are delighted and honored to share such an authentic journey of B True Wines!
