The one-page wine list at 1592 Wood Fired Kitchen & Cocktails in downtown Sarasota is organized as Bubbles & Rose, White Wine, Red Wines and House Wines. The top posted price is 399 for Louis Roederer Cristal 2014, and the House Wines section posts single numbers of 8 and 9. The list also prints a Tuesday deal: "Tuesdays wine bottles $99 and less are 50% off," with bubbles and Champagne excluded.
The reds top out with Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma County 2019 at 149 and Saint Cosme Côte-Rôtie 2020 at 139, with Heathen Cuvee Cremisi Syrah from Oregon at 105. The Italian block runs Podere Sapaio Volpolo Bolgheri 2022 at 76, Mantico Bersano Barbaresco 2021 at 84, Nirvasco Bersano Barolo 2020 at 89 and two Amarones, Villa Almadi 2021 at 86 and Clivus 2020 at 99. The lowest prices in the Red Wines section belong to Château Curton La Perrière Merlot 2020 and Rémy Ferbras Côtes-du-Rhône 2024, both posted at 40 / 10. Whites mix Chablis and Picpoul with Greek bottles (Gai'a Assyrtiko, Kontozisis Roditis), a Fabien Jouves 'Skin Contact' Muscat, a Folklore Pet Nat and two 1L bottles from Austria and Germany. The list notes that "Vintages are subject to change without notice," so confirm what is pouring.
The list does not label which number is the glass. Many wines carry two numbers, for example Friuli 2024 Benvolio Pinot Grigio at 36 / 9, Les Girelles Picpoul de Pinet 2024 at 48 / 12 and Rias Baixas 2024 Mila Albariño at 52 / 13, while others, including all four full-size Champagnes, the Materra Chardonnay (79) and the Bellula Pinot Noir (52), carry a single number. The House Wines section lists four Proverb 2024 wines (Rosé, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon) at 8 each and Contesa Chiara Prosecco at 9. There are also small Champagne formats: Laurent-Perrier Brut NV in 375 mL at 39 and a 187 mL split at 29, plus 187 mL Jura bottles from François Montant at 15 (Brut) and 17 (Rosé). Ask your server which number is the glass pour.
The Bottom Line
A one-page list that mixes Greek, Italian and French bottles with Cristal, Taittinger and Laurent-Perrier Champagnes, and posts many prices as two unlabeled numbers. Start with the Gai'a Assyrtiko (70 / 17) alongside the wood-fired octopus, or take the Les Girelles Picpoul (48 / 12) on a Tuesday, when the list says bottles at $99 and less are half off (bubbles and Champagne excluded). This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups, and the list carries no printed date, so confirm current availability and ask which number is the glass.

Siesta Drive and US 41 · Sarasota · Steakhouse
A steakhouse list built in two layers: 80 wines on the main list with 42 poured by the glass from $10 to $45, and a 20-wine Reserve list that runs $160 to $715.

Sarasota · Sarasota · American with winery focus

Siesta Key · Sarasota · American
Summer House posts a seven-page list whose biggest section is Cabernet Sauvignon and blends, with a 31-pour glass page priced from $13 to $38. Start with the $17 Decoy Cabernet by the glass, then buy the $70 bottle if the table likes it, or try the $29 Collefrisio Montepulciano Riserva for something off the Cabernet track. Confirm current availability and prices, since the restaurant says pricing, vintages and wines are subject to change; this unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Siesta Key · Sarasota · Steakhouse
This is a straightforward steakhouse list with posted 6 oz, 9 oz and bottle prices on the glass wines. Order the 14 Hands Cabernet with a steak, or the King Estate Pinot Noir with the Atlantic Salmon. Check the glass prices when you sit down, since the list is undated.

Vinings · Atlanta · Contemporary American
So has a wine list built to please a suburban dinner crowd without ruffling any feathers, and it largely succeeds at that narrow goal. The markup is real — most bottles sit at 3–4x retail — but the by-the-glass breadth gives you options to keep the tab reasonable. If you're a wine-first diner, this isn't your destination; if you're here for the scene and the food, you'll find something perfectly fine to drink.

· Toledo · Contemporary American
Sabira has built something genuinely worth noticing for Toledo: a compact, mostly European list that takes real swings with appellations like Grasparossa di Castelvetro and Vernaccia di San Gimignano. Pricing data isn't available to us, and the BTG program is unclear — so call ahead or ask on arrival. If the staff knows this list as well as whoever curated it seems to, this is an easy recommendation for anyone tired of the same regional Chardonnay-and-Cab circuit.
