Cabernet sauvignon is our favorite varietal, and Kamen makes some of the best cabs that we've had! Their tasting room is located right on Sonoma Plaza and they offer a couple of different tasting flights. Their sauvignon blanc is amazing too!
Excellent pinot noirs and cabernet sauvignons. Stop by their tasting lounge in nearby Kenwood, or venture up to their Estate Caves for a more exclusive experience (reservations required).
Just 3.5 miles from Sonoma Plaza, Gundlach Bundschu is a great place to relax, sit outside, grab a bite to eat, and enjoy Sonoma wine country in a casual setting. Their property is sprawling with plenty to see and explore, and they often have outside food vendors and live music.
The first winery you pass when driving to Sonoma from San Francisco, Ram's Gate is a great place to stop on your way into town. They make some of our favorite pinot noirs and have some of the best views around.
