Shelter Island: Oak Farm 5-Course Winemaker Dinner w/Dan Panella + Chef Erin Sealy: Sun. 4/24

Don't miss this fantastic line up of small production wines with owner/winemaker Dan Panella!

We are very excited to announce the return of pop-up wine dinners at our partner location in Shelter Island! Please join us for our next dinner at The Wine Pub, featuring fantastic wines from Oak Farm Winery in Lodi! Owner and Winemaker, Dan Panella will be joining us for the evening to share and discuss each wine selection and the rich family history of his winery. This very special dinner will focus on small production wines and Italian varietals which excel in the Lodi area. In addition to their flagships wines Genevieve and Raffaele, we'll also pour a few other wines perfect for the warmer weather ahead. You won't want to miss this memorable evening of wine, food and conversation!

Seating for this event will be held inside the venue, which is closed on Sundays. 

Each selection will be paired with its own wine inspired dinner course, prepared by Chef Erin Sealy. Chef Erin specializes in pairing food with wine, with a slightly different approach than most. Prior to creating a menu, each wine is tasted and reviewed and then she creates a food pairing, highlighting the nuances of each wine. This concept creates a dinner and pairing experience with layers of complexity and unique creations which exemplify the enjoyment of each wine. With a passion for food and wine, Chef Erin delights attendees with a detailed account of the pairing concept and cooking techniques that create each course. Expect a fabulous evening of wine, food and educational insights! Seating is limited. Please see below for additional dinner details and a registration link.
