Wines are wonderful, but the service we received from Geta was a real standout. So much fun and so knowledgeable about the wines, the art, and the intention behind what they serve. Would recommend, just a delightful afternoon!
Nice selection for gifting! Wines are excellent too!
Your holiday guide/booklet of gifts for 2025 is fabulous and such a creative way of cataloguing your offerings. Bravo! It's fun to swipe through the pages and click on items to see them up close and purchase. What a pleasure to spend time leafing through it!
Words cannot express how much I enjoyed my visit to Picayune! This was my second visit to the Calistoga area (which I highly recommend if visiting Napa) and I hadn’t visited any wineries that weren’t also a vineyard, so I was a bit hesitant. But Picayune was such a lovely experience! We were greeted by Jayne Marie, and she hosted us through a lovely wine tasting and food pairing. I didn’t realize at the time of booking that Picayune makes their own wines by purchasing grapes by local vineyards. Claire, the winemaker, is originally from France, and although it was her day off, she was in the store and stopped by to say hi to each table and shared more about her love for wine, and what inspired each varietal. We loved the Gatekeeper and the Origin, and both were our favorite red and white of the trip. This was such a unique experience (they even had a printed menu with our names on it!) and it was fairly priced. I would HIGHLY recommend. We absolutely will visit again on our next trip, and I anticipate we will order wines to our home in Missouri until we are able to visit again!

Picayune is simply magical. I discovered their wine and mercantile during my first visit to Calistoga on accident and it is the one winery that I continue to visit each time I return. I have yet to try a wine that I don't like and their champagne is my absolute favorite. My only complaint is that they don't ship to New Hampshire; but thankfully my mother in law is more than willing to have my wine shipped to her home and bring it with her when she visits!
Wonderful wine tasting at Picayune Cellars!
Great wine, great host-very knowledgeable. Perfect stop on the way to Santa Rosa.
Great wines and everyone is a pleasure to deal with. We love the wine club.
This is one of the most friendly and unique spots in wine country. We have been fans of Picayune for years and adore the owner and staff. Their wine portfolio has something for everyone and never disappoints - outstanding wines and a great value as well. Must visit!
We are new wine club members and cannot say enough great things about the wine and team at Picayune. Superb and different varieties and great experience with the team

Picayune has been our most favorite spot to bring family and both old and new friends for over 12 years. The experience they are able to add to our visits are always filled with expertise, great wines and merchandise along with truly amazing customer service. The addition of Chef Ben who brings wonderful food and Picayune wine pairings together in a beautiful presentation is the latest must do for a sumptuous lunch experience. Love the entire team, with extreme appreciation of Claire and Carly for their attention to detail. Look forward to another 12 years making memories at Picayune! E&D
Situated right in downtown Calistoga, wonderful, friendly woman-owned venture with great Alberino, Rosé, and Pinots available with lovely charcuterie offerings in a beautiful Mercantile setting.
Picayune is an essential part of any visit to Calistoga discovery. The shop itself is charming, and the knowledgeable and warm staff creates a welcoming, relaxed experience. It’s a place where topnotch wine meets genuine hospitality. Who doesn't love wine tasting and shopping at the same time??
The best part is the variety of outstanding wines. Both the Napa and Sonoma Pinots are lovely. The Gatekeeper (love a great GSM blend) never disappoints. Finally, their Albariño is one of our favorite whites, wonderful alone or with seafood - refreshing, crisp, and aromatic.
Picayune delivers a great experience and great wine across the board. Good vibes all around!
What a fantastic find in Calistoga! Fabulous upscale shopping and beautiful wines. What's more - the bubbles are actually real Champagne from France! Thank you, Julie, for hosting us for such a lovely tasting.
I recently became a member of Picayune. I have been a member and am a member of several different wineries. Picayune is by far one of the most charming of them all. This place has personality as soon as you walk in the door. You are immediately drawn to the merchandise but before you know it they are offering you a taste of one of their delicious bubbles or red blends or cabs. I enjoy tasting and browsing all the merch and then chatting it up with one of their warm and very friendly staff.
