OYSTERIUM WINE & OYSTER BAR

Oysters

Oysters are really one of nature’s most magical delicacies. They’re delicious, low in calories, and high in vitamins. Yes, the slimy texture and idea of eating something raw might be daunting to some of us, but there’s no reason you should be intimidated by these little mollusks, because they come in so many flavors and textures it’s hard not to find one you like.

Wine

Oysters go well with light-bodied wines with a bit of acidity, such Riesling, Cava, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Oysters & Wine

While you’re welcome to eat your oysters and drink your wine however you’d like, we recommend the following: Tip the oyster shell into your mouth and suck out the contents. Then, contrary to popular belief, don’t simply swallow, first chew on the meat and taste the flavor. Now swallow and then take a sip of wine. The brightness of the wine will cleanse your palate and prepare you to try another oyster.
