    The V. Sattui Winery is a popular walk-in destination in Napa Valley, and it's known for its expansive artisan deli and multi outdoor area and picnic grounds, very dog-friendly. The marketplace features a massive cheese shop and Italian specialties, making it convenient to pair food with wine. This place is highly accommodating for casual visitors compared to many other Napa tasting rooms. It's frequently packed with heavy foot traffic, and the walk-in available tastings tour starts around $45. I'm impressed with their tasty food selection and vibrant variety, and their staff working at the bar stations are super friendly.

    Review #400! We have visited V Sattui several times over the years, and it was on our itinerary for our current Napa trip, primarily because we wanted to get lunch at their food market. V Sattui is rather unique among the region's wineries, for several reasons: they have a food market, they allow purchased bottles to be consumed on site, they allow picnicking, and they serve as a wedding venue. This is not easy to achieve in Napa's ridiculously restrictive permitting landscape. So first, let's talk about the food market, which is one of the main attractions of this place. The cheese shop alone is worth going out of your way for. Almost every type of cheese you can hope to find. Sorry to my idealistic vegan aspirations, but I don't think I'll be giving up cheese anytime soon. They have a deli with sandwiches, pastas and various side dishes, olives, fruits, etc. Come on an empty stomach and be ready to eat well. When we first arrived at the winery, we were welcomed in by the very nice host, who explained the tasting menu options, if we were interested in a tasting. About 13 wines to choose from, and you get to pick any 5, $45 per tasting. Love the flexibility. Lots of white and rose options, as opposed to many wineries which just pile on the reds. I like a good red, don't get me wrong, usually with a big dinner, but on a hot summer day, I want lighter, refreshing wines. So we were sold, and signed up for an indoor tasting before lunch. During the couple of years we've been away from Napa, the winery has completely rebuilt their tasting room and store, for both structural and cosmetic reasons. It looks fantastic now, featuring a very attractive, modern circular tasting bar. Would have taken pics, but I try to avoid posting pictures of strangers on the internet, and the tasting room was filled with people. We grabbed a seat at the bar, and were greeted by our tasting guide, Lucas. Lucas was amazing. Personable, hospitable, and engaging. He made us feel welcome, got to know us, and ensured we had a great time throughout, even though he was serving multiple other customers at the same time. I could never do his job. I selected all white and rose wines, and RB went with mostly red. My favorites were the off-dry Riesling, and the Sauvignon Blanc. RB's Preston Vineyards cab was also very good, but again, I would need a hearty meal to consume this with. Lucas also treated us to a couple of complimentary pours, and the Madeira was an especially nice treat. We finished up our tasting, bid au revoir to Lucas, and made our way to the deli for lunch. We were hungry and decided to keep it simple with the essentials - cheese (of course), sweet baguette, and grapes. So many enticing cheeses to choose from, but you can't go wrong with French Brie and medium cheddar, so that's what we opted for. As for the beverage selection, RB's and my wine palates do not always align, but we can usually agree on bubbles, so that's what we did. Armed with a bottle of Brut cuvée and the aforementioned goodies, we made our way out to the picnic area. It's lovely out there. Many picnic tables, in the shade or in the sun, or you can picnic on the grass. We found a shaded table in the breeze overlooking Route 29, and settled in for our leisurely lunch. Terrific experience start to finish, even better than I remember from the past. Make sure you make V Sattui part of your Napa itinerary.

    We came in on a Monday around 2:50pm for our 3pm scheduled wine cellar members tasting. The hostess at the first check in station was really nice. Today our sommelier was Adam. He was very matter of fact, but he did check on an expired sale promo for us. Really missed seeing Janet today ) This is always a nice chill tasting. The cellar is a nice semi-private tasting which we appreciate. Also the newly remodeled market is so spacious and clean. And the food items especially the pesto pasta salad are delicious.

    We had such a great experience at V. Sattui Winery! We visited on a HOT day and did our tasting outdoors, and the misters in the back made such a difference. It was the perfect setup to sit outside, relax, and enjoy the wine without melting in the Napa heat! Mario Sattui was absolutely amazing and really made our experience. He was welcoming, personable, knowledgeable, and made the tasting so much fun. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does and wants people to have a great experience. We also loved walking through the market inside -- there were SO many good things! Amazing cheeses, meats, snacks, and everything you could possibly want to put together for a picnic with your wine. They were also running a great wine promotion while we were there, which of course we had to take advantage of! Beautiful property, great wine, great atmosphere, and even better hospitality. We cannot wait to come back. Thank you, Mario, for making our visit such a memorable one!

    This place is a zoo and very chaotic. Not customer friendly at all. We booked and paid for a tour and tasting and this was our first trip to Napa. We missed our check in time by 30 mins and the team was not accommodating. The tasting was not worth the price since we had a big group and had to find our own seating. We were given a ticket upon check in and when we entered the main store area for the tasting, it was hard to find an employee to direct us where to go or what to do next. One employee told us "Good luck finding seats for your large group". He ended up being our server and had a totally attitude the whole time telling me to "relax"! Very disappointing service and experience and would not recommend it for large groups (over 2 people) and especially if you have a disability. No assistance was provided for our ambulatory friend. Great to see how busy the store and location is. The castle looking decor is cool with a nice picnic area and pretty grounds. Too bad the service put a damper on the whole experience. Hope yours will be much more positive.

    Enjoying our tasting with Bart

    Did a tasting at the bar with Bart and it was the best experience we've had in Napa in 15 years of visiting the region. He is attentive, funny, and does not try to over explain or complicate the wines. Once he figures out your palate he makes suggestions that are pretty dialed in to your tastes emphasizing personal preference over the points or prestige that certain wines are supposed to carry. Definitely suggest searching him out if you come for a tasting to have an enjoyable and unrushed experience that will make your trip.

    Great selection of wine and market items that deliver a great aroma upon walking in. Staff was exceptionally remarkable about asking us if we needed help and knowledgeable on delivering our flavor profile and suggested pairings. We did the food and wine pairing and it's one of the things not to miss - our wine connoisseur was amazing and passionate. I had expected it to be a little bit bigger but I enjoyed the small lawn to walk around. Love the business aspect to its counter passion project of Castello di Amorosa!

    I stopped by this Winery after a day of wine tasting and enjoying lunch in the area. I always love visiting this winery. I love the outdoor seating. Lots of shade. It was busy, but parking is OK. We found parking towards the back. Love the variety of cheeses, wine, & deli sandwiches & sides. They have dessert too. I wanted to try their Panna cotta, but I came late in the day and it was sold out. There are signs that say no outside food. Staff were friendly. I'll be back here soon again. Definitely a really nice winery to visit.

    Inside the shop/ marketplace
    Brian V.

    I might describe this place as a wine compound. There's a vineyard and there's a really large shop/marketplace. There's also lots of space on the grounds for eating and just general sightseeing. The people are friendly and this place is well organized. I didn't actually drink the wine here. I was about to drive over an hour with my parents in the car, but they were really excited for me to see this place. They're a big fans and they wanted to grab some items from the store as well. Inside that store, there are a few stations where you could drink their wines and possibly beverages from other vineyards or producers. You can buy a lot of wine related items and stuff to eat here as well. Aesthetic alone on this place is amazing. Just a really fun place to visit when you're in Napa Valley.

    Premier Tasting Menu June 2026
    Romelia R.

    A beautiful winery that offers different experiences and gorgeous views. We made a reservation for the premier tasting in the patio which was shaded. Mario and Frida had incredible knowledge of the wines and made us feel at home. The list had a lot of options to pick from so we would tell them what kind of wine we liked and they gave us recommendations. My favorite was the 2022 Preston Cabernet Sauvignon for its dry but velvety full body taste. We also enjoyed the 2024 Gamay Rouge rosé for its sweetness but light tartness from the cranberries. We ended up purchasing bottles of both to take home. Our DD got to enjoy two different types grape juices that were both good. Half way through the tasting we ordered a charcuterie board to accompany our tasting and everything was delicious. Mario made the ordering experience seamless. There is also a marketplace with wine bottles, snacks, a deli, kitchen wear, wine bar needs, and souvenirs. There is a picnic area where people can enjoy what they purchased. V. Sattui easily became one of my favorite wineries.

    Pinot Noir & Chocolate
    Madison N.

    Came in today solo for a quick Tuesday tasting. I had the best experience of wine but also two wonderfully helpful men; Brian and Dorian. They both had incredible recommendations, great information on the different wines and had great hospitality. I can truly say, I've never been treated so well and like family at any other winery out here. The grounds are beautiful of lush greenery, fountains, vines and buildings. It's beautiful here. Sattui can fit the vibes of upscale and also casual. It's the best blend. I tried a few wonderful tastings and grabbed a glass of the Pinot Noir, it was hands down the best I've ever had. It was accompanied with delicious chocolate and MWAH!! Can't wait to come again, I hope I have the two great wine servers again; they knew what's up.

    Quality
    Thomas B.

    Ed greeted us with a great big welcome and smile. And assisted us with our tasting. This place is elegant, the product wonderful, and the service was 5 Star. Thank you for this wonderful experience that I was able to share with my wife, our daughter and her friend. Everybody walked out with a little something in a bag. I recommend this to anyone who is truly considering having good wines.

    Club Sandwich (halved by the deli)
    Jonathan Z.

    5 Stars all day. Booked an outdoor picnic experience but since we got rained in, they had a nice little table for us downstairs in the cellar with the oak barrels. Ash was great in getting our wine out to us, and we did upgrade to the cabernet flights ($45 upgrade) of which the Preston was the crowd faves of the premium reds (All $100+ per bottle). My favorite part of this place is the HUGE marketplace that has gourmet sandwiches, salads, pasta salads, tons of charcuterie boards, a CHEEESE section, and tons of samples all around. It was busy but lines moved along and there was so much to see. We lost track of time since we were enjoying our tasting so much. We had another tasting to go to so didn't get to spend much time browsing but we did enjoy their Focaccia Club Sandwiches (which they can cut in half), their olive-y potato salad, caprese salad, and their crisp and light Churro Cookies. It's a good first spot to pick up some goodies for the car, specially if you've got a full day of tastings. Would visit over and over again and while further up north, worth the drive.

    V Sattui Winery Reviews in Other Languages

    Ask the Community - V Sattui Winery

    How much are the charcuterie set?

    I will be going in the Fall and the person with me is a non drinker. Will he be allowed into the tasting to sit with me?

    Yes! Those are called designated drivers, and they are highly encouraged! I've been DD on many trips. Sometimes places even give DD's a coffee mug or drink or something.

    Can I bring a pet?

    Yes. Sattui is only one of the few pet friendly winery at Napa.

    Is the tasting free if you buy wine?

    Yes, you can sample the wine you are buying. But, there is also a wine tasting for a fee if you want to do that.

    Are picnic outside tables reservable?

    I don't know. I would hope so. Hopefully someone will know.

    Do they offer tours?

    Yes, check their website for estate tours and tasting.

    Are the food great for lunch?

    Yes! They have a market place.

    Do they sell wine glasses and corkscrews at the deli/retail shop? I want to picnic there but trying to figure out whether I need to bring my own stuff or if I can just buy it there

    They have a pretty large gift shop, so I'm assuming all you need would be available to buy.

    Is the picnic area still very crowded on Saturday during this time? Do you have to wait in line to get in?

    It was when I went a few weeks ago. Not sure if they have done additional restrictions due to recent COVID spikes.

    Are we able to buy food at the marketplace and bring/eat it during our wine tasting reservation?

    No, they have food to purchase at the winery and didn't allow outside food.

    Are the picnic tables currently open on weekends?

    Yes they are!

    Are they allowing babies who can't walk in seated tastings?

    Okay they don't accommodate my large group of 7 is it possible to still come and purchased wine and lunch without a tasting after my prior other winery reservation?

    Yes, the store is near their parking lot. You don't have to do the tasting. Lots of food and beverage items for purchase!

    Are picnic mats allowed at the picnic area?

    Generally they have asked to avoid being personal items due to covid concerns. They provide sanitized picnic table. There's a mini sign up process

    Do you still honor free wine tasting if you are Napa county residence? Can we have family picnic outside the picnic area with more than 10 people in the table? Is the picnic area first come first serve?

    The picnic tables are not reserved, but you still must wait to be seated.

    Lots of fires up there. Are you still open?

    Hi Patricia, Yes, we are still open daily, Sunday-Friday 10am-5pm and Saturday from 10am-6pm.

    I've been here once before years ago and loved the artichoke or spinach dip (I can't remember which one it was) Is the Marketplace open for guests to purchase items to pair with our wine tasting?

    They still have the dip. The marketplace was open on 4th of July weekend and your able to eat in the picnic tables in the area.

    Are reservations required on the weekend just to get in to visit the deli and marketplace? What about weekdays?

    We were just there for the deli and lawn and did not have a reservation. But it may be crowded and there may be a wait.

    Is picnic area still open during this time?

    Yes

    Are kids allowed during the pandemic? Do they need a reservation to visit on the weekends too?

    We saw some kids and babies on the day we were there. There's no reservations required but its always best to call them for this weekend. Have fun!!!
