Introduced to the beverage industry as a typical college student working part time, Neil's first taste was destined not to be his last. Since 1996, Neil has never looked back. Initially his career was less than exciting. Starting out as a part timer at one of the most successful wine stores in the South Coast, his work ethic coupled with his love of wine, caught the attention of the resident wine director and the owner at the time. Neil quickly rose up the ranks to a management position and used all the opportunities available to him to learn more and more about wine and the industry. Since then Neil has worked both retail and on the distributor side of the beverage industry, allowing him an unparallel understanding of the business and numerous occasions to attend wine and spirits classes and trips to wine country. He has also contributed as a wine writer to the Fall River Herald as well. Working in the Fall River area for the past 5 years, Neil is recognized for his exceptional work ethic, great product knowledge and most importantly, an unmatched level of customer service.
