Welcome to the Red Oak Grille Wine Club
Wine is an important part of the food and beverage program at the Red Oak Grille. We update our wine list regularly with new selections to offer more choices for our wine by the glass program including Premium Vintage Selections (protected with our new Wikeeps wine preservation system that guarantees freshness for each serving)
Events: We are scheduling educational meetings on the first or second Wednesday of each month for our Wine Club members. Dates will be published on this page.
NEXT EVENT- Wednesday, March 7th at 7:00 PM - Theme will be American Wines:
Duckhorn Sauvignon Blanc 2010 (Napa) This enticing Sauvignon Blanc offers a beautiful combination of freshness and complexity. The aromas are rich and layered with elements of pineapple, guava, peach and lemon zest.
La Crema Chardonnay 2010 (Russian River) Cloaked in the cool coastal fog that rolls over the vineyards each day, Chardonnay grown in the Russian River Valley retains a lively acidity and crispness. Packed with vibrant, perfumed aromatics and fresh, bright fruit flavors.
J Pinot Noir 2009 (Russian River) This intense wine is a blend of Pinot Noir from several of our Russian River Valley vineyards. Crisp acidity balances rich black fruit, raspberry, and intriguing vanilla notes.
Newton Claret 2008 (Napa) This dark garnet-colored wine offers spicy aromas of clove and cinnamon layered with dark fruit flavors of black cherry and blackberry supported by juniper and sage.
Chateau Montelena Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 (Napa) The deep garnet color of this wine hints at the big extraction and dark flavors to follow. Very rich aromas of pipe tobacco, chocolate and caramel beautifully complement the black currant and ripe black cherry fruit.

In the month of February, Chef Oliver and Sous-Chef Ryan will feature Asian Dishes every Wednesday and Thursday as part of our Ethnic Month Menu.
Ryan Monaghan, Sous-Chef here at Red Oak Grille, developed a love for Asian cuisine at a young age while living in Hong Kong. During his residence in China, Ryan has experienced many enlightening cuisine experiences including family vacations to Singapore and Thailand, opening his palate to a wide array of the freshest ingredients. One of his fondest memories was a visit to Phuket, a city in Thailand, where guests could watch the local fisherman catch that day’s menu items. During a trip to Sok Kwu Wan, in Lamma Island, the third largest island in Hong Kong, Ryan visited many open seafood markets with live fish tanks, where guests would choose the individual fish for their dinners. This was similar to the “wet markets” his family would attend, where vendors set up tanks with live fish, fresh chickens, and duck. While these family vacations emphasized the Chinese culture of fresh seafood and poultry, his time spent at home in Kowloon allowed him to experience authentic Chinese cuisine. During time spent with family friends and business partners, Ryan and his family were exposed to home-style Chinese cooking including one of his favorite items, Char Siu Bao, a steamed barbeque pork roll. The combination of restaurant cuisine and home-style cooking has allowed our chefs here at Red Oak Grille to develop a unique set of specials, which will be available every Wednesday and Thursday night of February. We hope that you and your families will join us on Asian nights to experience this delightful and exotic cuisine.
For our Asian Dishes Lou selected Specialty Beer to compliment our February Asian Specials:
Tsingtao Beer has a pleasant aroma and a well-balanced taste. Its high-malty flavor and well-hopped character make Tsingtao a refreshing complement to any Chinese meal. Tsingtao is produced with spring water from Laoshan, a mountain area famous throughout China for the purity of its water. Tsingtao ingredients include the highest quality hops, as well as the finest yeast and barley imported from Australia and Canada.
Sapporo Premium, with lush use of aroma hops, has an amazingly crisp taste, refreshing flavor, and refined bitterness to leave a clean finish. Whether in our iconic "Silver Can" that is long loved by our American fans, in bottles, or on tap, Sapporo Premium can be enjoyed on any occasion.
Kirin Ichiban: “Ichiban” means Number One! Kirin Ichiban is made with a luxurious single wort (or first press) brewing process which extracts only the purest, most flavorful portion of the finest ingredients. When combined with its new all malt formula, the result is a distinctively smooth, clean, and full-bodied beer—yet with none of the bitter aftertaste one would expect from a beer with this much flavor. What makes Kirin Ichiban the purest beer in the world: Single wort brewing process. All malt formula using only the finest two-row barley malt. European noble hops. A distinctively rich flavor, smooth finish, no bitter aftertaste.
Asahi Beer: Super Dry. Refreshing. Crisp. Clear. Asahi super dry is our premium imported draft beer. Fans around the world have enjoyed the taste of this high quality lager, Japan’s #1 beer. With its refreshing barley flavor and crisp aftertaste, Asahi Super Dry is by far the most popular high-quality beer in Japan. Since its debut in 1987 as Japan’s first dry beer, it has continued to improve the taste and excitement of beer. Its taste has set a new standard that is acknowledged around the world today.
