About Vincent Arroyo Winery

A long-time family winery in Calistoga famous for its Petite Sirah, with a $30 tasting. Picnic guides (2024 and July 2026) say you can picnic before or after tasting, but the official site now describes strict visits (max 4 guests, 21+, service dogs only) and says nothing about picnics.

  • $30 tasting; Petite Sirah specialist
  • Picnic tables reported by guides (unconfirmed)
  • Appointment only; groups of 4 max; 21+

Pioneer Park is Calistoga's downtown picnic spot, with a gazebo, playground and barbecue pits a short walk from Lincoln Avenue. It's good for a takeout lunch, but unlike Yountville and St. Helena, Calistoga bans beer and wine in parks unless it's part of an approved event.
