Charlestown's Pier 6 Restaurant Kicks Off Coastal Wine Series

Pier 6, Charlestown’s scenic waterfront dining destination, is kicking off its new “Coast-to-Coast” wine series on Tuesday, Dec. 15, which will highlight a different coastal wine region across the globe every month.

Beginning at 7:00 p.m., patrons will explore the wonderful coastal wines of Spain while enjoying carefully crafted six course meal prepared by Executive Chef Adriano Silva.

With their immense knowledge and passion for both food and wine, Chef Adriano Silva and a wine ambassador will escort guests through the dinner and educate them on the dishes, strategic pairings and the unique wine regions. The tranquil coasts of Spain have possessed the ability to produce exceptionally diverse and quality wines due in favor to the rich nutrients, natural fibers and land make-up that the coast continues to successfully offer.

The evening will begin with Chef’s amuse featuring fresh Island Creek oysters, tuna carpaccio, chive crème fraîche and paddle fish caviar paired with Campo Viejo Cava. The second course will take a turn with pressed foie gras and duck confit terrine followed by a ‘deconstructed paella,’ saffron & chorizo risotto with Nantucket Bay scallops, grilled shrimp and crispy leeks drizzled in a paprika sauce. In accompanying these two courses, guests will sip on a glass of Verdejo Campo Alegre, a full-bodied crisp white wine from the region of Rueda.

Chef Silva brings the sea to land with his cooked Halibut, which is paired with Bouza de Carril Albariño from Rias Baixas. During the fifth course, an assorted cheese plate will be presented and paired with Marques de Murrieta ‘Reserva’ Rioja. To conclude the night, patrons will satisfy their sweet craving with a warm dish of caramelized apple bread pudding.

To encourage conversation and enhance the dining experience, the seating that evening will be communal. Reservations are required and dinner will be $60 per person. To make a reservation or for more information please call 617.337.0054 or visit www.pier6boston.com. The Coast to Coast Wine Series will continue in 2016 when Pier 6 brings the coasts of France, Italy and Greece right here to the coast of Charlestown.
