Dining spotlight
After spending 15 years in the hospitality industry, Farrah Cauley discovered a passion for wine and returned home to Houston with an idea: a neighborhood wine bar.
“I wanted to create a place where people didn’t feel intimidated by wine but instead felt comfortable exploring something new,” she said.
That vision became Sonoma Wine & Cheese, a space where people could gather and discover wines from smaller, family-owned wineries.
