Potato Palooza!

  • Roche Sonoma Winery 22097a Bonness Road Sonoma, CA, 95476 United States (map)

Celebrate St. Patrick's Day with Roche Winery at our inaugural Potato Palooza!

Join us for a one-day festival celebrating the humble potato in honor of the Roche family’s Irish heritage and the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day. Make a reservation for your tasting of our award-winning wines or house-brewed beer, served from the tap, while enjoying live music and our famous Irish hospitality.

Chef Mara Roche of Aunt Momo's Catering has curated a potato menu from classic Irish preparations to creative modern interpretations.

Use the link below to reserve a tasting experience. Your tasting will be a 90 minute experience on the vineyard-view pavilion. Food can be purchased from Aunt Momo’s during your tasting. After your 90-minute tasting experience, we may ask you to relocate to a table on the patio to continue enjoying the afternoon; this allows us to host all reserved tasting experiences in the pavilion.
Walk-Ins are welcome, but there is no guarantee your tasting experience will be on the vineyard-view pavilion.
