“As Packers fans, we knew we had to make a stop at Three Fat Guys. From the billboard with arrow pointing down, to the casual tasting room and lovely tasting courtyard out back, this place DELIVERED! Dusty and Joanne were awesome, and it was great to meet Tony and chat a bit about his life growing up in Sonoma, and his time in Green Bay.
The wines at Three Fat Guys are legit amazing! We loved everything we tried, and came away with 6 beautiful bottles we can't wait to enjoy.
If you want to go somewhere fun, non-fussy, drink amazing wine, and then be super close to Sonoma, this is the place! We will be back soon!“
“the selection of wines paired with their cheeses and charcuterie was amazing!! Kara was lovely and amazing as well ! loved everything about my experience, would definitely come agian, and I joined the wine club .“
“Great spot! It takes a little longer than others to get to as it’s very secluded but super nice. Got to drive around the vineyards and learn about the wine. Our host (Grant)
was great and make it an outstanding experience. Custom menus provided a nice personal touch to make the day feel special. They served some charcuterie which was excellent. Highly recommend.“
“This was an experience of a lifetime! Definitely the best wine tasting in my life so far. Bryan was amazing - he was extremely knowledgeable about wine but also such a nice person to talk to. We also had a chance to meet the owners - Phil and one of his sons - who stopped by. The wines were delicious and the reds were super rich in flavour. They mostly focus on French varieties and do both single varietal and blends. This is a small winery and they do put their soul into it. The tasting room is located in a small house and it’s so cozy and nicely decorated. I definitely recommend this experience and can only pray it doesn’t get touristic since I want to visit it over and over again“
“Such an intimate experience on a cold & foggy February morning! So glad I was able to get a coveted spot for tasting! Highly, highly recommend!“
“The best winery in California! I would like to thank Don for making the visit spectacular he went out the way to greet us and he was so friendly. I highly recommend anyone who is looking to taste wine and check out the founder and history of wine in the US it’s very intresting.“
“Another winery recommended we visit this winery in Sonoma because of it's story, culture, and quality. Six of us did and it did not dissappoint. Jimmy did a wonderful job of sharing the family history, as well as the history of the winery. He also recommended great wines for us to sample and consider for purchase. I'm glad we availed ourselves to learning about how our Mexican brothers worked the fields, learned the business and became and expert, purchased land, started his on winery, and served two U.S. Presidents (Obama and Bush) and the California Gov (Swarzenegger). Oh, the wine is GREAT!“
“Down to earth setting, casual and relaxing allowing for a great place to sit, enjoy wine and have a conversation. The Merlot is by far my favorite. As it has plenty of character, and an amazing finish.“
“Congratulations to this boutique winery! Their reds are smooth, pleasant and maturing. The story of passion and legacy will keep their production going for many years! Looking forward to returning.!“
“One of the best wineries experiences I ever had. Every single time my husband and I visit it is a whole new experience, there is something different, new sculptures, the gardens, and the wines. This has to be in your bucket list. And BTW, Nicki is the best host 🤩“
“Exquisite. We did a private tasting and tour in the morning. The first thing you notice is the absolutely stunning facility and view out over the fields with the mountainous backdrop. Every wine we tried, both red and whites, were so effervescent, lean, and crisp. Shout-out to James, our guide, who was knowledgeable, witty, and easy to converse with. If we lived nearby I would become a member.“
“We stopped at Sonoma Plaza during our wine tour with Antony from Small-Group Wine Country Tour from San Francisco with Tastings booked via Tripadvisor. Highway 12 had a red wine blend on their main web page, so we stopped for a quick tasting. The wines were good, and they got us back to our tour on time.“
“The wines were great, we bought some even after telling ourselves we were done buying wine on this trip. But being able to talk with the owner was even better. We had a great experience and hopefully will be back in Sonoma so we can visit again!“
“My wife and I visited the tasting room at Sonoma downtown and we were pleased with the visit. The staff is nice and they know every detail about their wine and their vineyards. They have a delicious Zinfandel and some other wines. If you want to try something different from Cab Sauv from Napa, then this is the right place“
“We visited Ram's winery today and had a great time. The wine selection is great and the service was exceptional thanks to our sommelier Maya! She is very knowledgeable and made our day and tasting extra special. We'll definitely be back! The grounds are beautiful as well. Don't miss it!“
“Our experience at Anaba was one of the best I’ve had at a winery. The wine was incredible, each one better than the last but the service was the reason our visit was so special. Ben was knowledgeable, personable and overall a fantastic human & guide! Anaba thanks for having us, we will be back!“
“Had a fantastic time here. The pinot noir selection was impressive, and the quality was exceptional. But what really made the experience stand out was the knowledge and expertise of the staff.
My host, Kyle, was incredibly knowledgeable about the wines, sharing fascinating insights into the vineyards, and the nuances of each varietal. It was clear that they were all passionate about the wines and eager to share that passion.
Left feeling educated, enlightened, and eager to return. If you're a wine enthusiast or just looking for a great experience. Walt is a must-visit!“
“We had an amazing tasting experience with Andrew. He was able to accommodate a large group at short notice. The wines themselves were delicious - we took several bottles home. The merlot and pinot noir
were our favorites. Andrew’s commentary about the wines and his experiences in the industry kept us informed and entertained. The view from the top of the hill was gorgeous.“
“Delicious food, great for taking photos and relaxing, relaxed atmosphere“
“Our favorite stop out of 5 days in Sonoma/Napa! We enjoyed the wine here more than any of the high dollar, fancy vineyards we visited!
Great wines, great setting, and a very friendly host!
Personal favorites were the 2021 Merlot from Pickberry Vyd and the 2019 Cab Sav, but it’s a hard pick because everything was fantastic.“
“Absolutely one of the best wineries in Sonoma🍷 If you like Cabernet this is the place! Just off the Sonoma square, ask for Mark, he makes you feel like old friends!!!“
“Great place to visit Great wine and food ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻“
“Peter Cellars is such a quaint little winery! Tyler was our sommelier and was hilarious, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. Peter also came out to greet us during the tasting since he lives on the grounds. His 4 golden retrievers were the cherry on top for this tasting experience. I visited as part of the Edge of the Word tour (shoutout to Anya).“
“Terrific wines. Many Pinots, Chards and Cabs.“
“My sweetie and I stopped by for the yummy wine and the overall lovely views! We were not disappointed!“
“Great tasting experience. Will surely return for more!“
“The wine doesn't taste good.
Probably because of European Italian wine, the taste is very bland, without layers, and very dry.
Except for the first glass of sparkling rose, which was okay, the rest of the red was not good.“
“What's not to love about this small tasting room down "Wine Alley" and just off the Sonoma Square? It's quiet. It's peaceful. It's friendly. And the wine is beyond this world.We had the opportunity to meet the owner, taste some delicious reds and enjoy a bit of peace as we explored Sonoma County. There's a certain otherworldly feel here with the lovely artwork, the comfortable seating and a great conversation.The cabernet was fantastic. Subtle black cherry notes that I really enjoyed. If I didn't already have a full load of wine, this would have gone into the van to come home and be enjoyed later!Don't miss Extraterrestrial!“
“Wow, what a great find! We visited Ceja through Sonoma Bike Tours- and we had a fantastic time. My party is well versed in wine and well travelled- and we were impressed with our Ceja experience! The wine (especially the Chardonnay, red blend, and dessert wine) was consistently great. I highly recommend doing the wine tasting.Don’t miss out about learning about the family story, too!“
“I've been to wine region in California 3x, Texas 3x, and Virginia 2x. This is the first winery I've loved all the wine and the company Tyler provided walking us through the tasting. Literally 9 years of wine regions and finally got my first wine membership. I am so excited for these shipments going forward.
Not to mention 12/10 would pet their winery dogs during the Napa to Sonoma half each year.“
“Excellent Pinot Noirs, Neil is terrific.“
“Daniel was an excellent choice for wine educator for my clients today ! They really enjoyed his information and the setting is exceptional ! Created by the former owners of Arrowood if you’re a fan of their wine, this is another step up if not two ! CHEERS !!!“
“We stumbled upon this place by complete chance and we were met with surprise after surprise. Who knew about Kamen’s history ! Maybe people do but we certainly didn’t. It was really interesting to learn about his past - starting all the way back in india in kashmir and ending at where he did - a winning screenplay writer and certainly a winning Cabernet for us! This was the best Cabernet we had in the region. Not overpowering yet so complex. Mark herold is a magician with his winemaking and Kamen himself is a magician given everything he touches turns to gold! Great stop. Andi hosted us at the tasting room and was a great story teller! We would highly recommend“
“Must stop location! Kent and Lucy both helped make our time there very enjoyable.
Lucy greeted us as soon as we walked into the property, making us feel at home while Kent, our wine educator, prepared to show us around the property.
Kent is a phenomenal story teller and just a genuinely kind human being. Hearing the history of the property through his words was a great time.
After our tour, Lucy was very hospitable and helped us get set up with a cheese board (highly recommend) and a bottle of our favorite wine from the tour.
Both of these wonderful people made our time out at the winery very enjoyable and something we will look back fondly on.“
“My husband and I loved our tasting with Katy. She truly is a master vintner. Thank you for a memorable afternoon!!“
“I’ve been a member of Cliff Lede and several Wilson wineries, all of which I love, but this has become my favorite. I think Shane is an excellent winemaker and the variety of wines is amazing. I drink mostly reds (love especially the Hermit blend and blaufrankisch as well as the cab franc) but the Albariño white is excellent as well. The virtual tastings in the past two years have also been great introductions to the wines. Highly recommend.“
“Best winery in Sonoma. Small mom & pop type winery on just 20 acres. Personable, Chriss gave a wonderful wine tasting experience. Be sure to book in advance, reservation required. Their 2017 Pinot Noir was my favorite. My friends enjoyed there Syrah's too. Thank you Chriss!!“
“We did a Groupon for the Sampler Tasting at Roger Roessler Wines while we were in the Sonoma/Napa area. Aaron and I had a great time. Ethan was the gentleman that did our tasting. He made it such a great experience. In fact, Aaron told him I usually don’t buy wine at tastings and I ended up buying 6 bottles. If you are in the area, Groupon or not, please reserve your wine tasting here, you won’t be disappointed.“
“If I could have given our experience more than 5 stars I would have. Their selection of wines is great and the different methods they use is so fun and interesting. Our server’s knowledge was such a help and she made it a great experience. Thanks to Tia for your help today and we look forward to our next visit.“
“We had a fantastic time at Roche Winery Downtown Sonoma. It's such a fun spot with a wonderful, laidback vibe, the perfect place to unwind after exploring the town. I was particularly impressed by the Longford Reserve Pinot Noir; it was truly delicious and a highlight of our visit. The experience was made even better by Mark, who was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. He walked us through the wines and made us feel right at home. If you're in downtown Sonoma, you absolutely must drop in. We can't wait to go back!“
“We went to 4 different wineries. This experience does not include the tasting fees; it only covers transportation and lunch. Lunch was a panini with chips and potato salad. The bread on the panini was delicious. However, having chips and tasting wine was not great. The first winery was the best in terms of picturesque views of rolling vineyards. B.R. Cohn and Mayo were my favorite stops.“

George was very knowledgeable and kind and very honest with us towards his favorites, his experience and he provided some great stories and made some excellent recommendations. I would highly recommend coming here! It was such a welcoming environment and we enjoyed every single moment of it! 😊“
“Awesome tasting experience. Great wines“
“Nicholson Ranch is a winery slightly “off the beaten” pass as you’re coming or going from Sonoma to Napa that offers Chardonnay and Pinot noir grown on their estate. Their Cabernet, which is source from Napa and is labeled under the name of the new owner. The tasting flight consists of five wine and is $50. If you buy four bottles or more they wave for tasting fee. The flight includes one Chardonnay, two Pinot Noirs,, a red blend and a Cabernet. The pinots are a bit earthy, musty, and cost around $95/bottle. These are not baby Cabernets. These are very European “Old world” style red wine. The estate is beautiful. There is a Greek church up on the hilltop built by the Nicholson family a while they own some of the land they sold of the winery. The tasting room is beautiful with a big window overlooking the hilltop and they actually play music that gives you the right ambience to just relaxing and enjoy the wine. Mike is a fantastic host and runs a fun and very educational enjoyable wine like podcast.“

“There’s no better luxe wine experience than Corner 103 when visiting Sonoma. Voted one of the best tasting rooms in America, you are presented with a different wine glass for each varietal to enhance the flavor and aroma. For a very special occasion, select the food and wine paring experience. It’s worth the extra cost with a gourmet food parring unlike any other. This is one of the best wine clubs to join with their award-winning wine selection, distinctive events and personalized service.“
