About Caddis Wines
Caddis Wines is a small, personable operation run by husband-and-wife team Chris and Courtney Sorensen, with an intimate tasting room just off the Sonoma Plaza. Chris, the co-owner and winemaker, has spent more than 25 years in the wine business, and the name nods to a second passion: the caddisfly, a fixture of fly-fishing, a theme that carries through the labels and the easygoing conversation you will find at the bar.
Caddis is built around premier small-lot wines made from purchased fruit off high-quality vineyards, chosen to express each site. The lineup leans red and wide-ranging, from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Merlot and Petit Verdot to Pinot Noir, Zinfandel and red blends like the popular Better Together, sourced from both Sonoma County and the Livermore Valley, where the couple keeps a second, rarely-open location.
The Sonoma tasting room, which opened in 2020, is open daily and deliberately low-key. It is the kind of place where the winemaker himself is often the one pouring, walk-ins are welcome, dogs are too, and the pleasure is as much the conversation as the wine.
