• Charlie Palmer, Chef, Restaurateur, Hotel Owner and Author
• Hosted by: Gwendolyn Osborn, Wine Educator, Wine.com

Tasting Set Includes:

• Twomey Cellars by Silver Oak Sauvignon Blanc
  The appearance of pale lemon color; aromas of grapefruit, lemongrass, orange blossom; the palate is driven by citrus, electric and lively acidity; the finish of flavors of pineapple and cream coat the palate.
• Twomey Cellars by Silver Oak Russian River Pinot Noir
  A concentrated tapestry of flavors, this Pinot Noir has a complex yet delicate nose of black cherry, sage, red rose and tobacco. On the palate, refreshing acidity balances opulent berry notes. Voluptuous and polished tannins yield to a finish of cacao nibs and dark lingering fruit.
• Silver Oak Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
  Maroon in color with a garnet hue, this wine has an enticing nose of maraschino cherries, blackberry bramble and brisket with notes of clove and star anise. It’s mouthwatering with a juicy entry and has a fruity mid-palate of currant with toasted vanilla and roasted brown sugar character from American oak barrels. Structured tannins provide an elegant character with a long and expressive finish.
