Another 19th century creation, and the oldest town within the Wine Country, is Sonoma, California. There are a diversity of points of interest here and a lot of of them are unrelated to the food and wine culture of the surrounding region. There are places preserved from the Spanish Mission era, 19th century adobes, old hotels, and even a theater preserved from the 1930s. Sonoma is undeniably an excellent place to find vacation rentals to set up your base of operations, although there are authentic hotels and a diversity of bed and breakfasts here as well. Find time for a stop in the city’s central plaza to catch sight of what real life is like for locals of the California Wine Country.
