On the west coast, Solage, Auberge Resorts Collection and Parisian institution, Caviar Kaspia have partnered to bring ”the art of caviar” to the Napa Valley… with a twist. Solage’s chef, Gustavo Rios, has collaborated with the Caviar Kaspia team to create a special caviar-laced menu for guests and restaurant-goers alike. Playful and innovative menu items will be incorporated throughout the property – at the restaurant, Solbar, the bar, Solbar Bar, and also in-room with the hotel’s Caviar Concierge. Whether it’s a unique take on avocado toast or a twist on chips and dip, the Caviar Concierge will bring guests this elevated dining experience with the click of a button and in comfort of their luxury suite or cottage.
