    Honey and I stumbled upon Cochon as our first stop in Sonoma. Sean was very kind in telling us about their wines and recommending a tasting flight based on what we like to drink. Their charcuterie board was to die for and beautifully plated. The space itself is indoor/outdoor and was a lovely place for both small and bigger groups. We loved the wine so much, we ended up buying a bottle of their chilled rose, and enjoyed it per Sean's recommendation at the park across the street!

    We were greeted heartily by the tasting reoom manager as we walked past, causing my wife to stop and look at what Cochon had to offer. We were lured in by his positive vibes, but really impressed with the quality and diversity shown in the wines. In particular, my wife LOVED the Viognier. Later in the trip, we learned that this particular varietal is private labeled for one of Sonoma's premier bistro's, The Girl & The Fig. A great connection to make and a new "must visit" tasting room for our future trips.

    Such a lovely place! We absolutely loved Carlo and he did an amazing job at describing all of the wines. Each was delicious and paired so well with the cheeses! Definitely get the sparkling, it was the best!

    I've tasted at dozens of places across the Sonoma and Napa Valleys... and the wines at Cochon have won my heart. Their Rhône varietals are excellent, and regardless of which flight you choose there's always a perfect progression from light and crisp to bold and complex. The sommeliers are deeply knowledgeable and also excellent story tellers, I felt very welcomed coming in as a solo taster and was never left to fend for myself. If you're tasting at the Sonoma square, don't miss this one!

    My family spent a few hours on the Cochon patio in early June and we cannot stop talking about it. We had great food, wine, and service. We did 2 flights, a cheese board and a few individual pours between the group. Carlo guided us through the wines and the charcuterie and we cannot thank him enough! We will visit when we are in town and recommend it to anybody.

    Walked around the square and was lured by the sign that said Bubbly and Charcuterie. I loved all of the wines and the charcuterie, cheese and Spanish potato chips were a nice compliment to the wines. The service was fantastic.

    Charcuterie board & tasting menu.

    We are visiting in Sonoma for a family wedding and just had the most wonderful, educational, TASTY and quaint experience at the Cochon Tasting Bar. Sean was our host. He made great conversation, had knowledge on the wines from high to entry level information. It felt very comfort and fun! We had the Rhode flight and purchased 3 of the 4 bottles. Highly recommend visiting this establishment when you travel here.

    Martin living his best life.

    I don't drink and I was pleasantly surprised to see a full coffee bar/tea menu (which is owned and run by Carlo).

The friend that took us here mentioned how she likes that you never feel rushed. I see why people purchase wine club memberships now. As a Pendulum wine club member she gets wine pick ups, discounts, and unlimited tastings with three guests. The setting is beautiful! So many flowers. Nicely shaded picnic benches with umbrellas. They have a large fish pond and it's 25 cents for a cup of fish food to feed the turtles and koi. This is one of the most family friendly wineries I've seen. Many people bring their kids. They have corn holes too. Fancy and Pudding were the highlight! I reached out and felt like a Disney princess having one of them come to me for pets. The restrooms were very clean as well! It was fun browsing the store too. And of course the tasting and charcuterie board were a fantastic experience. I loved the cheeses and almonds they had. We had the option of deviating from the tasting menu. But everything we tasted was great! I think you can also bring your own snacks. It's a great winery experience. Nothing for praise for Cline Cellars. The day we went it looks like they were setting up a wedding later in the day. But that didn't negatively impact our experience at all.

    Had a sweet time. Checked in quickly and found a table…read more Property is very pretty and spacious for wandering. Purchased the tasting of 5-6 wines. Would visit again if in the area.

A friend in the industry recommended this place and made our reservation. We were ten min late due to parking/finding the place. The home is in good condition and quite nice inside. Our journey was just through the home, as our tasting was outside. The courtyard style backyard is really nice. Many plants and a few distinct seating areas. There is a bathroom out there and it's super clean and well decorated. The tasting was spectacular. We ordered bottles to be shipped home. We enjoyed the cheese/nut/cracker pairing they included. The tasting was not rushed and we enjoyed sitting in their garden. It was just me and my husband which was nice. It was the first tasting of the trip and it was no pressure, all questions allowed, relaxed and wonderful. I would recommend this experience. I would like to know more about the historic home. We did not become members because it was the first tasting of our week and we didn't know what we were in for. But I'm glad we ordered bottles to be shipped to our home so we can enjoy their wine again and again. We ordered the Chardonnay and three of their Pinot noirs, in various quantities. Thank you for hosting us, Nick.

Some street parking available, but also off the main drag in Sonoma, so it's very walkable from wherever you find parking. We chose to hangout on the patio, so we didn't really see inside.

They have a few beers and plenty of wine available to sample! We tried a few of their brews during our visit! They were refreshing and crisp.
