Viansa pours Italian varietals from its own Carneros vineyards above a 97-acre wetland preserve.
Tours & tastings at a hilltop wine estate overlooking a wetland habitat for herons, egrets & geese.
The Estate Sangiovese and Primitivo reflect Viansa's focus on Italian heritage grapes grown in Sonoma's Carneros district, a pairing rarely found elsewhere in the region. Visitors taste wines with direct lineage to Tuscany—Sangiovese, Bianchetta Trevigiana, and estate Primitivo—while overlooking wetlands that attract herons and egrets year-round.
Viansa sits atop what the winery calls the Summit of Sonoma, a hilltop estate with views stretching across the 97-acre wetland preserve below, where herons and egrets nest in shallow channels. Olive groves and vineyards surround the villa-style tasting building. The property's elevation above the wetlands offers sight lines across Carneros, a cooling-influenced appellation shared by Sonoma and Napa counties.
The Estate Tasting runs $25 and includes current releases like the Bianchetta Trevigiana and Estate Sangiovese. For $35, the Cave Tour & Tasting takes visitors underground to explore the winery's caves before pouring reserve wines. The Picnic & Wine Tasting pairs a gourmet basket with a wine flight for $50, set up on the grounds with views over the wetland habitat.
