VANCOUVER — Boulevard Kitchen & Oyster Bar has appointed Diana Claxton as its new wine director.
Claxton is a certified sommelier, formerly of Vancouver’s Homer St. Café and Bar, Wildebeest, Fable Kitchen and Cioppino’s Mediterranean Grill & Enoteca. Claxton’s goal is to bring more accessibility to Boulevard’s extensive list of wines and boost the restaurant’s focus on pairing Champagne and sparkling wine with executive chef Alex Chen’s seafood-focused menu.
“Everything we do at Boulevard is about creating an experience,” said Claxton. “It all goes back to the basics: you are the company you keep, and it’s a privilege at Boulevard to share such a big stage with people who are striving for perfection every day. To share in that kind of spirit and help carry on that momentum is what will continue to make Boulevard an iconic dining room not just in Vancouver but well beyond.”
Claxton joins accomplished sommeliers Steve Edwards, Director of Operations, and Maître d’ Brian Hopkins.
