Overview
Sauceda Cellars draws its name—and its spirit—from the legacy of Sauceda Ranch, founded by Judge W.W. Bogel and his sons in the rugged beauty of West Texas. Today, that land forms part of Big Bend Ranch State Park, but its legacy endures through the Bogel family's continued dedication to excellence.
From Augustus Bogel’s 1851 arrival in America to the present-day vines of the Texas Hill Country, each generation has carried forward a pioneering spirit—grounded in innovation, agriculture, and a love for the land. That tradition continues under the direction of Ed Cowsar, a descendant of Judge Bogel, whose vision for Sauceda Cellars honors both his ancestry and the evolving craft of winemaking.
The label art features original works by Clara Caffery Pancoast—a newspaperwoman, artist, and family matriarch—whose paintings reflect the grace and landscape of early Texas. Her legacy, like the wines themselves, is a blend of beauty, complexity, and character.
At Sauceda Cellars, history is more than a story—it’s a standard.
