Gary Sullivan
Gary Sullivan, a Certified Sommelier and Wine Educator, currently plays a variety of roles in the wine industry. He is the Wine Director for Farm Coast Market in Padanaram, MA. He is a wine consultant for restaurants as well as retail establishments looking for help with their wine program and staff training. He also provides personalized one-on-one consultations and wine tastings to assist with individuals looking to purchase everything from approachable every day wines, to wedding day choices, to cases that can age and appreciate in value for decades to come.
In October of 2016, Gary established the Farm & Coast Wine Club. The concept was a monthly gathering where Gary would present 4 – 6 wines and speak to regions, varietals or occasions (perfect pairings – oysters, BBQ etc). Members came with limited knowledge, but shared a common interest in broadening their understanding of the world of wine.
There were 14 people at the first gathering. Today Farm & Coast Wine Club has over 200 members, and has expanded to 3 nights per month in order to accommodate the interest (seating is limited). Some of these members have been to nearly every gathering over the last 2 1/2 years.
