Such delicious and unusual wines and Victoria (!!) is amazing. She is a fantastic storyteller and so much passion about the wines and the owners. read more

A must do tasting in the Sonoma Plaza! Sosie is such a fun and welcoming tasting room, and Victoria made the experience unforgettable. The wines were fantastic. I'm not usually a big white wine drinker, but I loved their Sauvignon Blanc. Their reds were excellent (especially the Cab Franc), and the award-winning sparkling rosé was a standout. Top-notch service, amazing wine, and such a great vibe - don't miss this spot! Added bonus - you get to make a wish in the wishing well. read more

Wonderful services by my fellow Victoria & Tori !! I came today with the most amazing service, enthusiastic and couldn't be more thankful and happy after poor "service" the day prior! Delicious wine and beautiful atmosphere. Came yesterday and had a different woman (Julie) who was so unenthusiastic and sour with a bad attitude. She was rude and we in turned walked out after her asking "what she could do for us" (um, we're here to have a tasting, like anyone else who comes here) I mean is there something else they offer-no. We're here today to give this winery a second chance because wed'd hoped that she doesn't define this company. Please consider a conversation with this the lady who isn't sure of how to converse with customers or your company may drown. Thank you. read more

Victoria is amazing! She can answer any question about the wines you might have. The wines are excellent! I like the Cab Franc & their sparkling wines too. Lovely spot to sit and enjoy a glass or 2. read more

New favorite tasting room in downtown Sonoma!! Victoria made the experience and is so lovely and so knowledgeable. We are visiting next week and will absolutely be coming back to buy more bubbles! read more

This place is a must visit while in Sonoma! It's a cute little shop but has such fantastic wines inside. They are French based which makes them unique to the area, and although they are small batch the quality of wine is on point. They are so friendly and helpful at getting you the best wine! read more

Fantastic tasting here the wines are made a little different in that they're picked at a lower brix which gives slightly higher acidity (think more food friendly) and lower alcohol. The increase in climate by even 1 or 2 degrees Celsius creates higher sugar in wine when fermented dry produces High Alcohol, higher ph (alkaline) and more extracted wines = less complex & less interesting. Jeremy our Host with the Most Knowledge, Cool Factor and relatable delivery was entertaining and has a depth of knowledge in the industry. Excellent Portfolio- out of the box. Sure I will always love Cab and a well made Chard. Out enjoying wines there is so much more beyond your current. We started with a sophisticated sparkling wine and a still white wine afterwards of Rousanne- well known grape varietal from Rhone. Most often seen blended w, Grenache Blanc, Viognier, and Marsanne, honey blossom, nectarine, and crisp acidity. read more

Julie was super sweet & she is originally from france. She was so friendly and explained all the wines to us. She started us with some sparkling wine then we had some still wines white and red. My favorite was the rosé of syrah. It was flavorful but so easy to drink and perfect for when its a warm day. Very reasonably priced tasting for the wine you get. Location is great right downtown in sonomoa square. We will be back read more

Enjoyed the wine tasting of whites and reds with education on the French style wines made in California. Wines only sold at this location. Walked away with the white wine sparkling. We had a tasting first thing on Saturday at 1030 am and it went quickly while enjoying the courtyard fountain outside. read more

Sosie Wine Tasting Sonoma CA Sat 5/7/22 © Stepped into magical world of Sonoma Court Shops heading initially next door to Sosie Wines... for Pinot at Fulcrum. Something stopped me from making it few steps further;) Saw Sosie Wines tasting room, was greeted by Gigi, she's such an enthusiast of the winery! Sat outside in the Vine Alley by the fountain. Felt spectacular! Loved Sosie, they're open now for about eleven months, fun place, the only tasting room, had some Pinot, brought home their sparkling, everything organic and naturally made (as winemaking process allows it) very personable which I prefer, or maybe just got lucky with Gigi there:-) È spettacolare! A taste of Pinot Noir 2017 from Spring Hill Vineyard, Sonoma Coast, to decide on the bottle. Very good, let's do it! Lovely. So here's what's coming to your nose: black tea (the only kind I drink!), Cherry (love!), juniper & hibiscus. And to your mouth: ripe plum (oh yeah!) & strawberry with equal measures of nutmeg, caraway seed, clove and vanilla. $45 bottle. Harvest day: 6 Sept 2017, aged 21 Mos. in 40% new oak. You can find all the details right on the bottle: elevation 500ft., soils, clones, fermentation process. Farmed organically and only 5 barrels made! Instantly feels exclusive. 95 points, Anthony Dias Blue. You can only taste these wines here at the wine room. Sosie (pronounced So-Zee) is French for look-alike or double. The concept in my interpretation: small artisan shop. Wines produced in small batches with minimal intervention and the lightest touch of oak, inspired by the wines of France. Owners Regina and Scott aim at pairing California grown wines with French soul. The soul which tells them when to pick the grapes and how to treat it in the cellar. They employ an old school approach to wine growing that favors restraint over ripeness, finesse over flamboyance. To make it food friendly akin French Bordeaux, Burgundy, Loire, Rhone... to craft California wines that are their sosie. One third through the bottle, my mood turned to bubbly. Gigi brought out the cork for the Pinot to take back home, and three tastes of Sparkling: *First Things First* - 2019 Sparkling white Brut Nature, 100% Roussanne. $36 bottle. *Bare Necessity* - 2019 Sparkling Rosé, Methode Champenoise, $36 bottle. *A Moment of Weakness* - 2019 Sparkling Red, Methode Champenoise, $40 bottle. Plums, boysenberry, cardamom on the nose. Ribbons of blackberry & raspberry. This bubbly somehow is both creamy and zesty. It finishes dry, with orange peel & baking spice. How can something this mysterious and brooding be so lip smacking and joyful? It's all about the bubbles! First Things First! Barrel fermented with full ML, then aged in neutral oak for 6 months, before its 2nd fermentation in bottle. Aromas of apricot, orange and brioche. Rich and creamy with a beam of ripe fruit. So I did things unconventionally, laughing - in backwards order! Since tasting fee is waived with purchase of any 2 bottles, and I bought 3, I got to try from both lists: Tasting Menu - 5 wines / $35 and Reserve Tasting Menu - 5 wines / $45. I won't bore you with the wines as I'm sure current releases will change with future visits. Plus, you gotta discover it for yourself. All you truly gotta know: Sosie is the place to be at! Gigi at Sosie is an amazing sommelier! Buonissimo! Cheers! *I wanna forgive and forget, and poison all my enemies Beat the savage drums of war all night, and in the morning pray for peace Baby, I don't ever wanna die, And I wanna hear the angels sing I wanna give every dime I own, I want all the gold for me I want everything, hmm I want everything [ Review #703 posted with 4 pictures on May 22, 2022 ] Gigi pouring Pinot Noir! @Sosie Wines Sonoma CA Sat 5/7/22 Sosie Wines tasting room in Sonoma Court Shops Vine Alley CA Sat 5/7/22 Sosie Pinot, 2017 superb!

Great wines and fun conversations with Victoria. She is knowledgeable about the wines and creates a fun atmosphere. Highly recommend.

So happy I found this lovely wine tasting room in Sonoma. Met some interesting people. Wonderful wine and stimulating conversation. Cozy and relaxing seating. Great atmosphere with a knowledgeable and entertaining crew. read more

The service is great. Friendly and good conversationalist. The atmosphere is okay. Nothing to write home about but passable. The wine did not impress me. It is done in the French style. Zero fruit to speak of. Mostly earthy flavors. I prefer California style wines with good fruit flavors. This was pure French style with zero fruit. For those that like the French style you may like this wine. So definitely give them a chance if you are in the French style club. But if you prefer good fruit and more California style your best bet is probably to skip this winery. read more

Our hostess was amazing, we were a big group and they were able to accommodate us. VERY personable and the wines were great. I'd return if ever in the area again, read more

Absolutely fantastic, highly recommend! The lady who helped us was French, I wish I could remember her name because she was amazing! So friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. All of the wines we tasted were out of our normal "comfort zone" but we wanted to try something new and are so glad we did! read more

Sosie is a lovely little winery, tucked in the shopping center of downtown Sonoma, CA. It has a welcoming environment that promotes a relaxing wine tasting experience. If you have the option to have Gary assist with your experience during your tasting, I highly recommend him. He's very informative and delightful to talk with. As you explore the delicious and refreshing varieties of wines that are offered at Sosie, Gary provides excellent customer service that will enlighten and educate. Sosie is definitely worth taking some time out of your day to visit. This establishment provides comfortable seating for all guests to enjoy their experience. read more

Being a fan of small priduction, hard to find, artusan wines, I was drawb to Sosie. Not your typical overdone, over ripe California style wines, these wines are definitely destined for the table. Located in Vine Alley, off the Sonoma Plaza, it's a nice little oasis. read more

Excellent tasting, mix of reds and whites. Julie was exceptional and so knowledgeable!

Came here on a recommendation from Jay at Cochon Wines (see that review, stellar choice). Tom was awesome! He made sure we drank water in between glasses (gotta stay hydrated) and walked us through the wines like we were having a dinner party. Great job hosting us, wine was delicious and the sommelier service was also fantastic! We picked up two bottles here that we plan to share the next time we have guests over...or maybe not, we might be greedy and keep them to ourselves. 5/5 would highly recommend! read more

Jeremy was wonderful and full of wine knowledge! He answered all of our silly questions and truly cared about making our experience special. Would definitely come here again and recommend it to all my friends. read more

French server is absolutely rude and nonchalant. Save yourself. There's other amazing spots next door

We had a great tasting today at Sosie. Interesting blends, very knowledgeable sommelier, and for a relatively new winery the bouquet and flavors were well developed, especially the Cab Franc. read more

Stopped in with a group of 8 without a reservation, Sosie couldn't be more accommodating! They let us try a some of the wines on the house so we could decide on a few bottles to buy. Our favorite was the Roussanne, it was very unique. Very casual & friendly setting. Highly recommend! read more

I cannot recommend Sosie enough. If you're looking for wines that standout and aren't your typical Sonoma and Napa chard, cab, and Pinot Noirs, look no further. They do a lot of Rhône varietals which are incredible. Most of the wines we tried were 100% varietal specific which is always nice. My favorite wine I tried was their sparkling red wine, which is made from Syrah, out of this world. I joined their wine club and bought a bottle of everything I tried. Jeremy was an awesome host and made us feel very comfortable. read more

Looking for a glass of wine while shopping. Came upon this little tasting room. Julie, the one working there, was very personable, asking my friend and I where we were from. We had two glasses of wine sitting in this beautiful little courtyard. Great time, great wine! read more

We had a GREAT time. We were able to get in last minute, as a group of nine! The wine was excellent and Gary was super helpful. Would highly recommend. read more

Very knowledgeable about their wines, fun and inviting environment a must try when you are in Sonoma. Gary and Jeremy are the best.

This is a hidden gem in downtown Sonoma. A boutique winery tasting room. Small and unique with a limited number of barrels produced. We have gone to so many wine tastings in our week stay; most were hit and miss with the wines we've tried. SOSIE?!? Every single wine we tried we loved even more. The only wine club I'll join! Walk-ins welcome! Can't wait for my next shipment! read more

Fantastic wine tasting experience! My friend and I walked in without reservations and they were so friendly and accommodating. The French inspired wines were all unique and high quality (especially the Roussanne, that was our favorite). Our host Jeremy made our experience so fun and was very knowledgable and welcoming. Very classy atmosphere, and friendly staff! I would highly recommend Sosie. read more
