Summer Rooftop Oyster & Wine Tasting

Virginia and her team have created something truly special in Phippsburg, Maine. Reviewers consistently praise her expertise as an oyster sommelier, with the experience going far beyond simple tasting to become an immersive education in local oyster varieties, pairings, and coastal life. The setting on the water draws constant acclaim, and many guests rave about the homemade focaccia and thoughtful details like oysters presented on chilled rocks. The half-day seafood adventure includes a boat ride with Captain Joe to visit an oyster farm, where guests learn about cultivation and enjoy freshly shucked oysters with cocktails. What stands out most is the genuine passion and hospitality from Virginia, Warwick, Andy, and Joe.
