Nebuchadnezzar Wines Ltd was founded organically out of an obsessive passion for drinking and collecting fine wine.
We have been collecting great wines for a number of years and have now accumulated a cellar to rival many London merchants.
The key to Nebuchadnezzar wines is passion followed closely by low margins and great service.
Matthew Oakley
A Professional footballer for 13 years. Matthew has spent the major part of his career with Southampton Football Club and is now the Captain of Derby County Football Club. An England International at Under 21 level, he has now made nearly four hundred appearances at club level.
Barry Skarin
Barry’s love of fine wine came from Switzerland where he went as a commis sommelier to work the season in a hotel and was given the job of opening the bottles of some of France’s greatest wines.
After returning to London in the early nineties to become the Head Sommelier at the 1 star Michelin Canteen for Marco Pierre White and Michael Caine, he soon progressed through the ranks to become wine buyer for the Group.
Then a move to work for Ian Schrager Hotels as Food & Beverage Director was another eye opener which lead him to open his first restaurant, The Greyhound at Stockbridge, which achieved 1 star Michelin.
Barry has been buying en Primeur since 1995 and has developed some great relationships within the industry, both here and overseas.
The Connection
The driving force of the Nezzar Team are Matthew and Barry who first met in the Greyhound in 1999. Several years later and with their passion for wines growing the Nebuchadnezzar Company was organically formed.
