Sonoma, California is one of those unique places in the world that is still unspoiled despite being one of the world's best producers of premium goods such as wine, cheese, beer, and spirits. While some wine and food destinations have become jaded and uncomfortable, Sonoma's artisans, farmers, winemakers, brewers, distillers, and chefs are still in touch with the land and the spirit of producing things because they simply love doing what they do. This month is Sonoma Wine Month and so we're working with the folks at Sonoma County Vintners to celebrate by bringing together some of Sonoma's top winemakers with a virtual tasting featuring some of our favorite #MenWhoBlog members.

Sonoma County, California is located just north of San Francisco and is home to more than 400 wineries that are producing 60+ different varietals of wine. If you are a novice wine enthusiast looking for a comfortable place to learn or you are a collector looking to simply kick back and relax with a glass of wine, this is one of the best places in the world to visit. I (James from ManTripping) had a chance to visit Northern Sonoma County two years ago and have been hoping and planning ways to visit again and explore more. With travel starting to open again we're almost there but I'm so happy to be able to bring together some of my friends to help share one of my favorite places with our shared communities.

We will be going live on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube at 5pm PT on April 21. You can also watch the live stream right from this page. (YouTube stream coming soon)

More information coming soon on the specific wines we will be tasting as well as more information about some surprises that we're working on to make the event even more fun!

While you wait for the show to begin, we encourage you to visit SonomaWine.com for more information about Sonoma County Wine Month.
