NAPA VALLEY WINE, DINE & SPA GIVEAWAY GRAND PRIZE DETAILS:

Two-night Stay at Dr. Wilkinson’s Backyard Resort, with $200 Spa Credit & Two Hooded Sweatshirts

Located in the heart of downtown Calistoga – the ultimate Napa Valley destination for relaxation and pampering – Dr. Wilkinson’s Backyard Resort & Mineral Springs is known as Calistoga’s original wellness resort, founded in 1952. After undergoing a complete renovation, this reimagined 50-room resort now blends the legacy and pedigree of its storied past with the wellness inspiration of today. Rooms and cottages feature cheerful mid-century furnishings, retro mini fridges, and pink bathrobes.

However, it’s access to the spa that is the main highlight of a stay here. You can’t go wrong with any of the wellness treatments offered, but if you had to pick one, we’d suggest a mineral-rich mud treatment, perfected by the resort’s namesake doctor nearly 70 years ago.

R&R, delicious food, and a retro spirit? Yes, please. Dr. Wilkinson’s is truly one of the most unique places to stay in the valley and we know you’ll love it!

Fine Print: Valid Sunday – Thursday, based on availability. Must be booked before June 30, 2023. Spa appointments must be made in advance. Non-transferable, and blackout dates and restrictions apply.

$75 Restaurant Credit at House of Better

Southwest-inspired House of Better is Dr. Wilkinson’s not-to-be-missed new restaurant. Influenced by restaurateur Trevor Logan’s time in the Southwest, the menu highlights healthy(ish) Southwestern comfort food and a wide range of beverages, including house-made agua fresca, kombucha on tap, sangria, and local wine and beer. Elevated counter service and a playful, backyard experience are anchored by a wood-fired oven and New Mexican chile roaster. And did we mention dessert? House of Better offers seasonal pies made in house, including their must-try Green Chili Apple Pie. Yum yum.

Fine Print: Valid Sunday – Thursday. Must be used before June 30, 2023.

Signature Collection Tasting for Two at Tamber Bey

A visit to the Tamber Bey Winery is like nothing else in Napa Valley. The winery is located at the Sundance Ranch in Calistoga, a world-class equestrian facility that is dedicated to training top performance horses. Adding to its uniqueness is the tasting room, which is located in the original barn clubhouse. Designed by renowned Napa Valley architect Howard Backen, the barn surrounds the courtyard, where guests can taste wine, mingle with the horses, and enjoy stunning views of Mount St. Helena and the Palisades.

During the Signature Collection tasting, you and your guest will start with a walking tour of the production spaces (wine in hand), then the ranch to meet a few of the horses that make their home at Sundance Ranch. Guided by the Estate Director, you will experience a deep dive into the winery’s operations and learn how owners Barry and Jennifer Waitte transformed Tamber Bey into the acclaimed winery it is today. The private tasting will feature wines from their Signature Collection portfolio of limited-production wines. This tasting is a special way to experience the beauty and charm of this truly unique Calistoga winery. What could be better than wine and horses?

Fine Print: Must be used before June 30, 2023.

Calistoga has no shortage of things to see and do any time of year, but one of the town’s most unique experiences is certainly the Calistoga Harvest Table event in September. The uber-popular event, which takes place on Sunday, September 8, 2019, returns to downtown Calistoga for the sixth year, celebrating the bounty of harvest season and drawing crowds to experience a memorable evening of local food and wine.

Tickets go on sale on Monday, July 15, 2019 at 12pm PDT and will undoubtedly sell out quickly. Be sure to set your calendar as previous years’ tickets have sold out in as little as 40 minutes! So what’s the hype, you may ask?

Calistoga Harvest Table is a chance to savor the local wine and delectable food of the Calistoga area, all while doing so for a good cause, as a portion of every ticket benefits Calistoga Cares food bank. On hand for this beloved Napa Valley tradition will be nine local restaurants and over 40 Calistoga wineries, kicking off with a “social hour” wine tasting at 4:30pm followed by a seated dinner at 6:00pm. Taking over downtown Calistoga with over 1,000 feet of tables to create one impressively long dinner table, Calistoga Harvest Table is an incredible al fresco dining experience not to be missed.

Don’t worry — if you do end up missing the boat on tickets, you can still take advantage of the social hour, which is open to the public, offering the chance to sip wine from the wineries of the Calistoga AVA.

Here are the participating restaurants serving up mouthwatering cuisine at the 6th Annual Calistoga Harvest Table:

• Cafe Sarafornia
• Calistoga Inn, Restaurant & Brewery
• Evangeline
• Hydro Bar & Grill
• Lovina
• Napa Valley Crust
• Sam’s Social Club
• Veraison

And here’s the list of participating wineries (in addition to Napa Palisades Beer Company, which will be on hand to offer tasty beer):

Why not make a weekend of it? From laid-back lodges to five-star getaways, family-owned eateries to farm-to-table restaurants, and even destination-worthy hot springs, Calistoga is home to a variety of places to stay, eat, and explore. Check out our Calistoga Guide for more inspiration.
