Allocated and limited production wines

Unlike many on-line wine stores, Sophie's Cellars is a brick and mortar store in the heart of Sonoma's wine country. As such, we have access to rare and hard-to-find wine allocations which we have made available on-line. We also provide a 10% discount on mixed 12 bottle cases. We hope you will enjoy shopping with us online or come visit us in Sonoma Country, one of the world's finest wine growing regions.

Sophie’s Cellars presents the best Sonoma has to offer at all price points: an extensive and unique collection of fine limited production wines.
