"Sauced is the latest NYC transplant touching down in Nashville, and this wine bar is just what Germantown needs. There’s no drink menu—just tell the staff what you’re in the mood for, either by grape type or flavor notes, and they’ll probably pick out something perfect. You should also order enough snacks to make up a full meal. There’s toast loaded with tuna tartare and an obscene amount of caviar, and paper-thin mortadella (piled higher than a Southern beauty queen’s hair) that’s sandwiched between pistachio sauce, a tomme cheese foam, and buns. After discovering a particularly great bottle of Cab Franc, it’s easy to find an excuse to return the following night with a new friend to split another. Just get here early—no matter what day of the week it is, the little house on 6th Ave. fills up fast." - Ann Walczak
