The upcoming feast of a festival will cover four days of more than 20 tantalizing events, from November 17 to November 20. This delectable event is all about mixing the best of two pleasures: gourmet food and fine wine. The theme of Flavor! Napa Valley is the search for perfect food and wine pairings, and there will be various sessions devoted to the topic with guest speakers arriving on flights to California from all over the world. Napa’s own Chef Bob Hurley will be leading one of the main events, The Appellation Trail: Tasting Napa Valley, which pairs over 100 wineries with some of the area’s best restaurants. Freshness will be a particular theme of Flavor! Napa Valley; reflecting a recent trend in the region to promote so-called farm-to-table cuisines. There will also be a coveted “Dinner with the Napa Valley Winemakers” at the Silverado Resort and Spa, so guests can meet the creators of some of their favorite reds and whites.

Check out the list of culinary classes and demonstrations, including a talk on “Wine from a Chef’s Perspective” by Michael Chiarello. Chiarello will also be hosting an interactive lunch. A few examples of class themes are Sushi and Sashimi 101, truffles, mouthfeel and texture, poaching techniques, and two separate sessions on Cabernet Sauvignon.
