Silver Oak Wine Dinner

On Tuesday, November 3rd at 6pm, Mariposa at Neiman Marcus in Ala Moana Center will be featuring a vertical tasting of the Napa Valley Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvignon - 2004, 2003 & 2002 vintages, together with a four-course prix fixe dinner crafted by chef Marc Anthony Freiberg.

Nora Comee, Regional Sales Manager of Silver Oak Cellars will also be there to share stories of  Silver Oak Cellars & their exceptional style.

A vertical wine tasting is a classic wine flight theme used to gain greater insight and depth of the winery and its style. It allows you to make comparisons from vintage to vintage to see if there are any differences by tasting the same wine from the same producer over a series of years.
