Marie hosted a fabulous wine tasting event tonight! She did a great job planning between two events and making sure both groups had the full experience. Thank you for everything! We were the 6:30 party of three next to the front door.

This charming wine shop might seem small, but don't let that fool you! Their selection is vast and diverse. Not only can you find your new favorite wine here, but the incredibly knowledgeable and kind owner and her staff will guide you to it. The atmosphere is lovely, tasteful, and intimate. Every Thursday night they have a themed wine tasting that is a fun and unique option for the start of a great date night or small group outing. I've tried varieties of wine during the tastings that I loved and would never have experimented with on my own. They also serve a fine collection of cheeses, meats, and other snacks to accompany your wine. Support this local, female owned business the next time you're looking to expand your wine horizons. I'll definitely be back!

I never write reviews but I was very unsatisfied with my experience. I enjoy going to wine shops while on vacation and I can truthfully say this is the worst one I have ever been to. The owner did not let me look around at the bottles and only gave me one option to chose from. I was looking forward to exploring the different varietals & instead was handed a bottle & pushed to check out without being able to look at anything else. The store is also sloppy and poorly organized. I arrived at the store hoping to purchase several bottles of wine but the owner’s judge mental attitude towards me did not make me want to give her any business.
You may have visited many wine shops or just a few but your expectations of a wine shop can't prepare you for what's to come when you grasp the handle of the door to this shop. The lights are low when you enter. As your eyes start to adjust you begin to notice case upon case of wine surrounding and towering above you. The glint of light from each bottle, colored by the gems within, sparkle in the corners of your eyes. As the bottles come in to focus, you see groups of wine from near and far... some from places you might only ever visit in your imagination. From the corner comes a voice welcoming you. It’s Marie, the owner of Sauer Grapes, Sauer being her family name. As you begin to look around maybe not quite sure exactly what you want, Marie chats with you. She disappears behind one of the shelves, reminiscent of the wand keeper in Harry Potter, she conjures up the bottle of wine you had on your mind but couldn’t describe. The wizard of wine. You won’t be disappointed visiting this magical shop on Daniel Island.

I felt extremely uncomfortable. She kept telling me to be 6 feet apart from her yet she stood close to other customers as the place was not conducive to social distancing!! I guess I didn't have the right clothes on that made me look like I came from money!! Shame on her!! Plan to go back and make her feel bad about how she treated me. I hope she reads this and feels bad but kinda doubt she will.

I always enjoy the wine classes here and come away smarter about new wines. The recent Italian class was no exception. We were able to sit on the patio and the descriptions were great. However the food portions are small and limited to enjoy with the wine and the timing is a bit slow. There was a lot of time between tastings and they mistakenly took our glasses before the tasting was over. What was supposed to be an hour was closer to two. We had dinner reservations and were hungry so we missed out on buying anything in the end. But we came away having enjoyed the wines and sommelier discussions. I think they need more help at these events maybe.
