Book a Six-Hour Wine Tour
Caddis Wines is a family winery owned by Courtney and Chris Sorensen. Chris is the winemaker, with more than 25 years in the wine industry, and the winery has homes in two places: the Livermore Valley, where its site opens only about eight times a year, and Sonoma, where the tasting room is open every day.
The Sonoma room opened in 2020 in a narrow space on East Napa Street, a few steps from the plaza. The wines are small-lot, small-production bottlings made from purchased fruit from Sonoma County and Livermore Valley vineyards, and the tasting features wines poured only at the winery.
Tastings are seated and guided by the staff, which makes Caddis an easy, unhurried first stop before lunch on the plaza. Walk-ins are welcome, and we reserve ahead so a table is ready.
$30 per person for a sit-down tasting of four wines poured only at the winery, guided by the staff. One tasting fee is waived for every two bottles purchased or with a wine club membership.
Tasting fees as of October 2026. Wineries set and collect their own fees, and they change from time to time.
