Ray’s at Killer Creek invites connoisseurs of fine dining and exquisite wines to a one-of-a-kind Daou Wine Dinner event. Set to unfold on Thursday, Feb. 29, at 6 p.m., guests will indulge in a masterfully curated menu paired with the renowned wines of Daou Vineyards from Paso Robles, California.
Six courses are paired with a selection from Daou's impressive wine portfolio. Guests will be treated to a symphony of flavors starting with an amuse-bouche of foie gras torchon, leading into a first course of Olde Salt oysters and progressing through succulent lamb loin and magret duck breast. A cheese course teases the palate before a final note of poached pear for dessert.
The experience is priced at $150 per person, not including tax and gratuity. As seating is limited, patrons are encouraged to reserve the OpenTable experience online.
