Our 2011 Food and Wine Events

At the Wine Country Inn, we know you love food and wine. While the Napa Valley has many great food and wine options, we’ve also put together our own food and wine events for 2011. Each event will be fun, educational, and—we hope—a celebration of our more than 35 years helping guests experience the wonderful food and wine the Napa Valley has to offer.

Fun Thursdays Each Thursday May through October, we will be hosting a special food and wine educational event in the Inn's Common Room from 6-7 p.m. These events are for Inn guests only, and subject to availability. First Thursday: "All about Olive Oil" with Chef Diane DeFilipi Second Thursday: "All about Balsamic" with Chef Diane DeFilipi Third Thursday: "Food and Wine Pairing" with Marty Paradise Fourth Thursday: "Food and Wine Pairing" with Marty Paradise Note: The Food and Wine Pairing classes are limited to 12 people, and cost $25/couple or $15/single.

Anniversary Al Fresco Dinners We will be hosting nine specials dinners this August and September to help celebrate our 36th anniversary. Stay tuned for more info. Ode to the Olive Our fourth annual Ode to the Olive celebration will take place November 18-20. Please visit our Ode to the Olive schedule of events for more info.

New Year’s Eve On December 31, 2011, we’ll host our third annual New Year’s Eve dinner.
