Al Forno's menu page at alforno.com says "This is a sample. Our menu changes frequently and may differ from what is listed here," and its wine list is one column of a dessert-and-drinks page, headed White, Rosé, Sparkling and Red. The wine section is short and mostly Italian. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
The list has six whites, two rosés, three sparklers and six reds. Whites include La Battastina Gavi, Castelfeder Pinot Bianco, Lackner Sauvignon Blanc, Marino Abate Grillo, Famille Vincent Bourgogne Chardonnay and a Brandolini Pinot Grigio Ramato (skin contact). Reds run from Cardedu Monica to Vajra Barolo Albe, with Sophie Schaal Pinot Noir, Volpaia Chianti Classico, Reflets de Cissac Bordeaux and Palazzone Rosso between them. The page prints no vintages, and no unit labels beyond one "(1/2 Bottle)" Champagne.
The page does not say glass or bottle, so these are the prices as posted. Whites: La Battastina Gavi 15, Castelfeder Pinot Bianco 15, Lackner Sauvignon Blanc 16, Marino Abate Grillo 15, Famille Vincent Bourgogne Chardonnay 17, Brandolini Pinot Grigio Ramato 15. Rosé: AIX 15, Brundlmayer 14. Sparkling: Carpene Malvolti Prosecco 15, Cantina Sorbara Lambrusco Rosé 13, and Billecart Salmon Champagne (1/2 Bottle) 58. Reds: Cardedu Monica 14, Sophie Schaal Pinot Noir 16, Volpaia Chianti Classico 17, Reflets de Cissac Bordeaux 16, Palazzone Rosso 20, Vajra Barolo Albe 26.
The Bottom Line
Al Forno's wine list is short, with almost everything priced 13 to 20, so treat it as a quick pick rather than a deep dive. Try the Brandolini Pinot Grigio Ramato (15) or the Cantina Sorbara Lambrusco Rosé (13), and ask whether the posted numbers are glass prices. The restaurant says its menu changes frequently, so confirm what is open; this unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
· Providence · Brazilian Steakhouse
Fogo de Chão Providence is a steakhouse first, and the wine list reflects exactly that priority — it's serviceable, accessible, and won't embarrass anyone, but it's also not trying very hard. If you're here for the churrasco experience, grab the Jorjão Malbec or the Garzón Albariño and let the meat do the heavy lifting. Don't come expecting discovery; do come knowing exactly what you're getting.

Federal Hill · Providence · Mediterranean with American flair, rotisserie-focused bistro
A glass-led list with a fair spread: 18 pours from $10 to $21, most reds at $14 or under, and a half-bottle section for when two people want different things. Start with the $15 Stoller Pinot Noir if you are ordering the short ribs, or the $13 Riesling with the choucroute, and confirm prices since the menu is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted drinks selection, not service, storage or markups.
Fox Point · Providence · American Brasserie
A compact list with three pour sizes: 17 wines come as 6 oz, 9 oz or bottle, and bottles run from $30 to $125. Start with the $10 Chateau Roc de Segur Bordeaux or the $11 Marqués De Valor Albariño, and confirm prices because the list is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Federal Hill · Providence · Italian
A big Italian-leaning list: 41 Italian reds, 25 Cabernets and 22 wines by the glass. For a glass, the $14 Bonanza Cabernet by Caymus or the $11 Dante Di Fiorenza Super Tuscan are the easy picks; for a bottle, the $44 Carpineto Chianti Classico with the Mafaldine Bolognese is a safe, honest match. The menu says vintages can change with availability, so confirm before ordering. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Federal Hill · Providence · Italian
A large Italian-American list with enough by-the-glass range to cover a big table. Start with the Fratelli Cozza Montepulciano d'Abruzzo at $10 a glass, or the Silvan Ridge Willamette Pinot at $13 if you want something lighter, and come on a Monday if you want to buy bottles at half price. The wine pages are undated, so confirm prices when you order. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
College Hill · Providence · American, French
A Cabernet-heavy list from autumn 2025, with glass pours from 10 and bottles up to a 450 Opus One. Start with the 10 Château du Petit Thouars Cabernet Franc, or the 16 Fontanafredda Nebbiolo if you want something from Piedmont, and check that the list is still current since it is marked September 2025. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.

Antonetas isn't a wine destination, and it isn't trying to be — it's a family-friendly neighborhood Italian with a wine list that covers the basics and stays out of the way. If you're after a solid glass of something red with your Lasagna in a no-fuss setting, you won't be disappointed. Just don't show up expecting to geek out over the list.

Crust is a solid neighborhood Italian spot where the wine list is a supporting player, not the headliner — and that's fine. Come for the rigatoni alla vodka and garlic knots; order a glass of whatever red they're pouring and don't overthink it. We'd send a friend here for dinner without hesitation, just not for the wine list alone.

Vespucci's isn't a wine destination, but it doesn't pretend to be — and that honesty is refreshing. The one move that earns real respect here is the Monday half-price bottle deal, which turns an ordinary weeknight into a genuinely good value. Show up on a Monday, order the Eggplant Parmigiana, grab a bottle at half price, and you've had a solid dinner without thinking too hard about it.
