Here are events happening in wine country this weekend that we think are worth checking out:

• Silver Oak Release Day, February 2, 9:00a.m. - 3:30p.m., at Silver Oak Cellars.  This Saturday, Silver Oak Cellars is celebrating the release of its 2003 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.  The tasting fee is $20 (usually $30), which is probably well worth the money if you’re into Cab but have reservations about forking over the $100 it takes to purchase a single bottle.  The event will take place at both the winery’s Napa Valley and Alexander Valley locations.  For address, phone and other information, check out Silver Oak’s Web site by clicking the following link: Silver Oak. 
• Sonoma Valley Olive Festival.  Although there’s not much going on at Sonoma’s wineries during this time of year, check out the February events schedule for the Sonoma Valley Olive Festival by visiting the event’s official web site.  There are olive oil-focused individual events scheduled for this weekend as well as daily promotions throughout the month.
