Wine Flights
At Nektar, we enjoy sharing our knowledge of wine with our guests. We select wines that we think match well with our menu and we offer each guest the opportunity to compare wines of similar taste and structure.
To make this comparison easier, we’ve pre-selected certain wines from our current wine list and put them together in a “flight”.
The flights shown here provide a 3 ounce serving of each wine for you to see, swirl, sniff, sip, and enjoy.
