You can't mention Nostrana without first referencing owner/chef Cathy Whims. From the Southeast Portland restaurant's beginning, she's been the heart of the enterprise, creating memorable classic Italian dishes and earning accolades from the James Beard Foundation, among other organizations. Assembled around her is a just-as-impressive team, including wine director Michael Doherty.
The wine list celebrates the world yet commits the right amount of attention to Oregon, and Whims' dedication to the state extends beyond the menu as she is known for her collaborations with Willamette Valley wineries. For these reasons and more, Nostrana has earned a 2016 Oregon Wine A-List Award.
