Wine & Food Event at Olio

Most people don’t associate alcohol with education. This, Olio Restaurant hopes to change that by bringing in Bob Stashak, well-known winemaker, for its wine lecture and tasting event, Wednesday, March 16. Bob Stashak began his winemaking career at F. Korbel and Bros. after graduating from the University of California at Davis in 1973.

Twenty years later, he found Classic Wines of California, which had been looking to expand its sparkling wine production. There, Stashak implemented a traditional bottle-ferment sparkling wine program. Stashak, who’s been in the winemaking business for 38 years, now oversees all of Classic Wines of California’s sparkling wine programs, including bottle fermented and tank-fermented sparkling wines.


Stashak will bring his wine tasting expertise and wine knowledge to Olio Restaurant. Along with wine and wine education, there will be a specialized menu, including bruschetta, smoked trout fillet, white bean and tomato soup, medium-rare prime Angus cigarel, and a chocolate cupcake.
