Discover more about Sodaro Estate Winery

Sodaro Estate Winery, a hidden jewel in the Coombsville appellation of Napa Valley, offers a serene and intimate wine-tasting experience. Founded in 1998 by Don and Deedee Sodaro, the winery is a testament to their passion for wine and their dedication to crafting exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux blends. The Sodaro family's wine heritage traces back to Don's great-grandfather, Giuseppe Sodaro, a barrel maker in Sicily during the 1880s. After enduring a drought that devastated his vineyards, Giuseppe immigrated to the United States. Three generations later, Don revived his family's winemaking legacy, purchasing property in Napa Valley and planting vineyards in what is now the esteemed Coombsville AVA. Coombsville, Napa Valley's 16th appellation, is located just a short drive east of downtown Napa. This region is known for its cooler climate, influenced by its proximity to San Pablo Bay, which brings morning fog and cool evening breezes. The moderate temperatures and longer growing season contribute to the development of concentrated fruit and vibrant, nuanced wines. Sodaro Estate Winery's vineyards benefit from this unique terroir, producing grapes that express the distinctive character of Coombsville. The estate spans approximately 30 acres, with 9 acres planted to a variety of red grapes, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, and Petit Verdot. The vineyards are meticulously managed to ensure optimal ripening and fruit quality. The winery's commitment to excellence extends to every aspect of the winemaking process, from vineyard management to barrel aging. Visitors to Sodaro Estate Winery are treated to a personalized and exclusive experience. Private tours of the estate provide insights into the winery's history, winemaking philosophy, and sustainable practices. Guests can explore the vineyards, learn about the different grape varietals, and witness the meticulous care that goes into each bottle of wine. A highlight of the tour is the opportunity to taste wines directly from the barrel in the winery's cave, offering a glimpse into the aging process and the evolution of flavors. The tasting experience at Sodaro Estate Winery is designed to be both educational and enjoyable. Knowledgeable and passionate hosts guide guests through a selection of the winery's limited-production Cabernet blends, sharing insights into the wine's aromas, flavors, and structure. The tasting terrace offers breathtaking views of the rolling hillside vineyards, creating a picturesque backdrop for savoring the wines. The winery's colorful garden adds to the ambiance, providing a tranquil and inviting space to relax and enjoy the beauty of Napa Valley. Sodaro Estate Winery's commitment to hospitality is evident in every detail, from the warm welcome to the attentive service. The staff is dedicated to creating a memorable experience for each guest, ensuring that every visit is both informative and enjoyable. Whether you are a seasoned wine connoisseur or a novice, you will appreciate the opportunity to learn about and taste exceptional wines in a relaxed and intimate setting. While the Sodaro family sold the estate in April 2022, the property continues to welcome visitors for tastings by appointment under its new ownership, Bydand Wines. The legacy of the Sodaro family's passion and dedication to quality remains, ensuring that guests can still experience the charm and exceptional wines that have made Sodaro Estate Winery a beloved destination in Napa Valley. A visit to Sodaro Estate Winery is more than just a wine tasting; it is an immersion into the world of fine winemaking, a celebration of family heritage, and an appreciation of the natural beauty of Napa Valley. It's a chance to escape the crowds, connect with the land, and savor the flavors of Coombsville in a truly unforgettable setting. The winery's commitment to quality, hospitality, and sustainability makes it a must-visit destination for anyone seeking an authentic and enriching Napa Valley experience. Whether you're drawn by the allure of world-class Cabernet blends, the tranquility of the vineyards, or the warmth of the hospitality, Sodaro Estate Winery promises a journey that will delight your senses and leave you with lasting memories.
