About This Event
The Oakville Appellation Tasting is an annual celebration of the "Golden Mile" — the stretch of Napa Valley that produces some of the world's most sought-after Cabernet Sauvignon. Hosted at Opus One Winery, the event brings together over a dozen Oakville producers for a guided comparative tasting led by the region's top winemakers. Guests explore the nuances of To Kalon, Beckstoffer, and other legendary Oakville vineyard blocks, learning how slight differences in elevation, soil, and aspect create dramatically different expressions of Cabernet. The afternoon concludes with a seated winemaker panel and a farm-to-table reception featuring local Napa Valley cuisine.
