Try calling org-sort and sorting on the TAGS property: `C-c ^ r` then
selecting "TAGS".

Offhand I don't know how that handles multiple tags, but, if that
doesn't do what you want, you can always supply a custom key and/or
comparison function to org-sort-entries (even when calling it
interactively).
