Wine

You can visit several tasting rooms on the Sonoma Plaza that have vegan wine options. Cheers!

 
Your guide to spending the day in the Sonoma Plaza
(and beyond) with vegan options all along the way!
​

Check out our all-new Google Map: Sonoma County Vegan Wine Trail here. We have put all our favorite wineries, restaurants, and must-dos in Sonoma County in one place making your planning one step easier. 

 

Yes, vegan options do exist in Sonoma Valley. Some may be a bit harder to find, but we have you covered. Living in Sonoma Valley for over 15 years and the past six years as a vegan has helped make this personal.  We have compiled our favorites into a list for you here so you don't have to worry about a thing- just head out and enjoy that perfect glass of vegan-friendly wine. Of course, we highly recommend taking our Farm Sanctuary and Vegan Wine Tour to round out your perfect weekend.

Be sure to check out the museums of missions at Cline Cellars, just down the way, they also have vegan wine. 

​

VJB Cellars has a beautiful patio and their pizzas are great. They also have vegan chocolate in the gelato shop next door-try a dark chocolate Red Vine!

Go for an easy bike ride around the Valley with stops at a few of our favorite wineries. Rentals, half-day tours, and full-day tours are available. Check out Sonoma Valley Bike Tours for more information. 

 

If you want to venture out of Sonoma, I highly recommend a hike at Armstrong Redwoods and a stop at The Barlow Market. Of course, you could spend an entire day just in Sebastopol. Muir's Tea Room is the best!

 

Don't miss Amy's Kitchen in Rohnert Park for the best chili-cheese fries ever!
