Sonoma Valley has been farmed since Mission-era California; vineyards expanded in the 19th century and the region played a key role in the state’s early wine industry.

Confirm winery reservations
Many smaller tasting rooms require advance bookings—share your itinerary with the operator before pickup to secure preferred times.
Bring photo ID and a card
Tastings require government-issued ID and some wineries charge tasting fees or retail purchases—carry a credit card rather than relying on cash.
Dress for uneven surfaces
Vineyard paths and cellar steps are often gravelly or slick—choose closed-toe shoes with grip.
Budget for gratuity
A standard 20% service gratuity is typically billed after booking—add this into your per-person cost planning.
Government-issued photo ID
Required for alcohol tastings at most Sonoma wineries.
