The
marriage of food and wine creates a magical experience
that truly enhances each and every occasion. There
are no rules when it comes to pairing food and wine,
the most important aspect is to drink what you enjoy
and leave all the misconceptions at the door about
white wine should go with this and red wine should
go with that. Each and every wine on the list is designed
to unite with the variety of ingredients used to prepare
each dish. In any case, our knowledgeable staff will
be happy to assist you with any food and wine-related
questions/suggestions.

Doug Nevins has extensive expertise in both the wine
industry and restaurant beverage management.

has grown up in a family that has been heavily involved
in all tiers of the wine industry for close to four
decades, and currently owns two premier wine shops

Doug further developed his career at the restaurant
level by working in such high-end Boston restaurantsas
Vinalia, Neptune Oyster

As assistant wine manager, then wine manager, he developed
a keen sense for creating wine lists to pair with
the restaurants' menus. He extended this knowledge
to expand the restaurant's wine-by-the glass sales
by utilizing wine preservation systems and creating
an appealing listing of specialty wine/glass offerings.
He was instrumental in building the wine list at Neptune
Oyster which was chosen
as “one of the top ten new restaurant wine lists
in the country” by Food and Wine Magazine.
This wine list portrays the diverse knowledge and
experience that Doug has gained throughout the years,
resulting in a collaboration of wines from around
the world that will certainly be enjoyed by many during
Osetra’s journey. |
