Julius Wever

Wines with a Creative Twist

Julius Wever, Fris’s maître and sommelier, brings a fresh, creative approach to pairings. Raised just a street away, he combines local pride with a keen sense of hospitality. Julius carefully curates an exceptional wine list, balancing well-known labels with rare finds, and has earned recognition for his mocktails, which echo the innovative spirit of Fris’s cuisine. Whether pairing a bold red with a Japanese-inspired dish or creating a non-alcoholic match for a delicate French course, Julius’s expertise ensures every sip heightens the flavours on the plate. His personal, down-to-earth style makes every guest feel at home.

"For me, pairing is about creating harmony. Whether it's a bold Japanese-inspired dish or a delicate French classic, the right wine—or even a crafted mocktail—brings out its soul. My goal is to help each guest discover something that resonates deeply with them."
