About the Sonoma Portworks
Welcome to Sonoma Portworks, the only winery in Sonoma County dedicated to crafting award-winning ports and after-dinner wines. Nestled in the historic Foundry Wharf in downtown Petaluma, California, our winery has been transforming California grapes into elegant, well-balanced ports since 1994.
Join us in our cozy tasting room, open Thursday through Monday from Noon to 5 pm, where walk-ins are always welcome. Our tasting experiences, designed to last 45-60 minutes, provide a delightful exploration of our unique offerings. For just $20 per person, non-club members can savor our exquisite wines, while club members enjoy complimentary tastings for up to four guests. Parties of six or more require reservations, with an 18% gratuity added to the tasting fees. Enhance your visit with our curated cheese boxes, perfectly paired with our wines, available for $20 and ideal for sharing among four people.
Our mission is to craft balanced ports that showcase the rich aromas and flavors of our sustainably-grown grapes, sourced from family-owned vineyards. Each vintage is a testament to our dedication and passion, resulting in unique and delicious ports. Explore our extensive ‘port’-folio, featuring artisanal products like port-barrel-aged brandy, fig-infused liqueur, and our exclusive Sonomic Almost Vinegar, a non-alcoholic delight that surpasses balsamic vinegar.
Discover the magic of DECO, a port infused with natural dark chocolate essence, and DUET, an after-dinner sherry with natural hazelnut essence. These innovative creations revolutionized the fortified wine world and remain unmatched in their unique composition and sleek packaging.
Under the expert guidance of Deneice Knotts, who took over winemaking in 2020, we continue to innovate with new varietals and maintain our commitment to quality. Our wines are hand (and foot) crafted into small batches with meticulous care, ensuring each bottle is a true artisan masterpiece.
Come and experience the unforgettable flavors and warm hospitality at Sonoma Portworks, where every visit is a celebration of exceptional wine and the art of port making. We look forward to welcoming you!

Reviews of Sonoma Portworks
"We were passing through Sonoma and found Sonoma Portworks by chance on Google Maps. Small but cozy tasty room with quite a few port varieties. Murray was awesome and made us feel welcome, very chill and knowledgeable. So glad we stopped by for a tasting! We stocked up and now have enough port to last us the rest of the year. Can't wait to come back for a restock."
"Too bad. I knew we were cutting it close. But 6 of us walked in with 5 mins left before they closed and they wouldn’t serve us. Unfortunate for them. 6 people ready to buy a few bottles each and he wasn’t willing to give us the time of day. Maybe never again!"
"Here in the wine country there are numerous tasting rooms that serve amazing wine that can be enjoyed over good conversation with family or friends. But if you want to experience something exceptional, I would say that Sonoma Portworks is the place. Thier crafted ports created by Bill Reading are outstanding and their tastng room is a wonderful setting to enjoy them. A special shout out to Amy for being such a wonderful host. Your beautiful smile and attentiveness made our port tasting sweeter and more enjoyable. We are looking forward to the next visit!"
"It was love at first sight when I visited their old tasting room in Kenwood years and years ago. We came here today for nostalgia AND my birthday. Amy helped us with all the pairing/suggested recipes and beyond. we had such a great experience. Even though port isn't everyone's thing, they are great to incorporate into cooking, dessert, cocktail etc. All the ports we tasted has its character so it is hard to choose one! We ended up getting three bottles and joined the Port Club. i cannot wait for our next shipment, which i already know what to order."
"Highly recommend. We had our tasting with Amy. She was wonderful and full of knowledge about the array of products and how they’re made. We got a tour through the production area. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area."
