Grape and Company to close

Grape and Company, a retail wine, cheese, gourmet food and gift basket retail store located in the Sauk Point Square shopping center at the corner of High Point Road and Old Sauk Road, will close its doors on Wednesday.

The business, owned by Jack and Linda Korpi, also operated a small restaurant and catering business and offered cooking and wine tasting classes. The store was known for elegant and unusual cheese platters.

"I think what we enjoyed most about the business is meeting all kinds of nice people," Jack Korpi said today in a phone interview. He said that he and his wife wanted to pursue other interests. None involves food, he said.

Grape and Company opened at the end of 2004.
