Paul Newman Wine Dinner at Fleming's
Paul Newman is introducing a line of Newman's Own wines. They aren't available in stores yet, but you can try them at a wine dinner at Fleming's Steakhouse & Wine Bar (1855 South Lindbergh Boulevard) at 6:30 p.m. this Friday, February 29.
The five-course meal includes Newman's Own chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon, both from 2006. Wines from Francis Ford Coppola's vineyards are also featured. There will be a red carpet and Paul Newman movie trivia, and The Color of Money will be playing. The cost is $95 per person (tax and tip not included). Call 314-567-7610 for more information. The full menu is after the jump.
