Kenzo Restaurant's tasting menu is the most distinctive fine-dining experience unique to Napa city: a Japanese kaiseki format (seasonal small courses in precise succession, documenting what is alive in the valley at that exact moment) paired with curated Japanese sake alongside Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from Kenzo Estate's own vineyards. The combination exists nowhere else. The sake-and-wine pairing reflects the estate's founding philosophy: Kenzo Tsujimoto, a video-game industry billionaire, built the winery as an expression of Japanese aesthetic sensibility applied to Napa's extraordinary agricultural terroir. Chef Kenji Miyaishi's kaiseki menu is the cultural synthesis of those two influences.
