Nathan

Front of House Lead / Manager on Duty

Nathan's career has taken him through nearly every aspect of the beverage and hospitality industries, from working alongside winemakers in the Pacific Northwest to developing award-winning Wine Spectator wine programs, creating innovative cocktails, and leading successful restaurant operations across the country.

During six years with COR Cellars in Washington's Columbia Gorge wine region, Nathan gained firsthand experience in winemaking, vineyard relationships, distribution, and tasting room operations. He helped grow the winery's production from approximately 2,000 to more than 6,000 cases annually while expanding distribution into 15 states. That experience gave him a deep appreciation for sustainable viticulture, thoughtful winemaking, and the stories behind every bottle.

Earlier in his career, Nathan contributed to wine programs at Biaggi's Ristorante Italiano and Maize American Grill that earned Wine Spectator recognition. He later served as General Manager and Catering Director at Limoncello in Pennsylvania.

More recently, Nathan has focused on beverage innovation, hospitality consulting, and guest experience. At Alpine Distillery Lounge in Park City, he served as Cocktail Development Coordinator and Bar Lead, creating original cocktails, leading educational tastings, and helping elevate the lounge's beverage program.

As Front of House Lead and Manager on Duty at Tannin Bar, Nathan brings together his passion for wine, creativity behind the bar, and years of hospitality leadership. He plays an important role in supporting the team, maintaining exceptional service standards, and ensuring every guest feels comfortable exploring something new.

Nathan believes the best bars offer more than exceptional drinks. They create an atmosphere where conversations flow naturally, curiosity is encouraged, and guests feel like they have discovered a place they truly belong.
