Wingman Metrics
Walk into the Alpenhof and the wine list feels exactly like the room: cozy, traditional, and not trying to surprise you. It's a lodge wine list for lodge guests — familiar names, European leaning, and priced for people who just came off the mountain and aren't doing math. That's not a crime, but it does set expectations.
The list runs 80-150 bottles with a European tilt that fits the Austrian-alpine dining room aesthetic. You'll find Dr. Loosen Riesling and Trimbach Pinot Gris nodding toward Alsace and the Mosel, and Louis Jadot Bourgogne holding down the Burgundy corner. Chateau Ste. Michelle Riesling is the token Pacific Northwest concession. What's missing is depth — no meaningful Italian program, no Rhône options that we could identify, and nothing that would make a serious wine drinker lean forward in their chair.
The BTG list hovers around 10-16 options, which is respectable for a mountain lodge dining room. Expect the usual suspects rather than anything rotating or seasonal — this is a set-it-and-forget-it glass program that services the après-ski crowd efficiently without exciting anyone. Pours are presumably standard, and you won't be surprised in a good or bad direction.
Dr. Loosen Riesling — $48
Loosen's entry-level Mosel Riesling is a workhorse bottle that always punches above its retail price point. In a list that trends steep, this is one of the more defensible buys — and it's a natural fit for the fondue.
Trimbach Pinot Gris
Most tables at the Alpenhof are ordering Chardonnay or Cab on autopilot. Trimbach's Pinot Gris from Alsace is the smarter move — it has the weight and texture to handle raclette and schnitzel, and most diners walk right past it.
Louis Jadot Bourgogne Pinot Noir
Jadot Bourgogne is fine wine, but it's also one of the most marked-up bottles in the American restaurant ecosystem. At resort pricing in Teton Village, you're almost certainly paying $70+ for something that retails around $20. The QPR math doesn't work here.
Trimbach Pinot Gris + Cheese Fondue
Alsatian Pinot Gris has the acidity to cut through molten cheese and the body to stand up to it. It's the regional logic play — Alsace sits right on the border of French and German alpine cuisine culture, and Trimbach is the benchmark producer. Order both.
The Bottom Line
The Alpenhof's wine list won't make your Instagram feed, but it does the job for a cozy mountain dinner without embarrassing itself. Come for the fondue and the fireplace — just temper your wine expectations accordingly.
South Jackson · Jackson Hole · Burgers, Bar & Grill
This is a short bar list that fits a burger bar: 10 pours, $9 to $15, no bottle prices posted. Order the $9 Ercole Barbera with a burger, or spend $13 on the Pradorey Tempranillo for something less expected. This unrated guide covers the posted by-the-glass list, not service, storage or markups, and the page is undated, so confirm what is pouring.
Teton Village · Jackson Hole · Pan-Asian small plates and contemporary bar fare
A short hotel-lounge list where every still wine is priced at 6 oz, 9 oz and the bottle. Start with the $19 Tentadora Malbec or the $15 Dr. Loosen Riesling by the 6 oz glass, and confirm today's prices because the page is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Moose · Jackson Hole · Western / American
A seven-wine list with one price for everything: $11 a glass, $25 a bottle. Order the Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc with the Pulled Pork Sandwich, and take bottles if there are three or more of you. This unrated guide covers the posted drinks selection, not service, storage or markups.
Downtown Jackson · Jackson Hole · Modern Mexican / Taqueria
A five-wine list sitting beside a tequila and mezcal menu the restaurant is proud of. If you want wine with dinner, the Los Vascos Cabernet at 10 | 36 is the lowest-priced pair and the Elouan Pinot Noir at 13 | 48 is the other red, but confirm what the two numbers mean and check current availability since the menu image was linked as June 2025. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Wilson / Westbank · Jackson Hole · Italian-American
A one-page list with an Italian-red group of 22 bottles and 14 glass entries, judged only on what is posted. Order the La Farra Prosecco at 8 | 32 with a pizza, or the 38 Diego Conterno Dolcetto for a bottle, and ask which number is the glass price. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Wilson · Jackson Hole · Japanese / Sushi
Start with the $16 Ca' Vittoria Prosecco, or the $17 Pascal Biotteau Anjou Blanc if you want a white by the glass. If you book the omakase, the restaurant says a wine or sake pairing is an additional $50 for four 3 oz pours. Confirm current availability and prices. This unrated guide covers the posted list, not service, storage or retail markups.
