Amara's posted Wine & Spirits List is dated Saturday, August 1, 2026, and it opens with a by-the-glass page before moving to Champagne, sparkling, white and red bottles. The restaurant says its program celebrates "both classic and emerging wine regions." This unrated guide covers that posted list, so check that today's pours match it.
The bottle pages run from grower Champagne (Rene Geoffrey "Expression 1er Cru" NV at $165) through a long Burgundy section to Bordeaux, where Lafite Rothschild 2000 is posted at $5,995. The South American pages are where this list gets specific: Argentine Malbec from El Enemigo 2022 at $80 up to Achaval Ferrer "Finca Bella Vista" 2014 at $392, three Uruguayan Tannats plus a Tannat blend, and Mexican bottles from Casa Jipi and Monte Xanic. There is also a skin-fermented ("orange") section with two wines, Escala Humana "Credo" 2019 at $114 and Vodopivec "Solo" 2014 at $156. The list names Amanda Garcia as sommelier.
The beverage menu linked from Amara's menus page prints no date, lists 13 wines by the glass and labels its prices 6oz / 9oz / bottle; it adds that the full wine list is available by request. A 6 oz pour runs from $16 (Aviva Loureiro 2024, Vinho Verde) to $28 (Lallier "Reflexion R.019" Champagne, Domaine Bailly Reverdy Sancerre, Ehlers Estate Cabernet). Order the El Enemigo Malbec 2022 from Mendoza at $20 / $29 / $80, or the Garzón Albariño 2025 from Uruguay at $19 / $28 / $76.
The Bottom Line
This is a list built around the glass page and a deep bottle section, with Argentina and Uruguay getting real space next to Burgundy and Bordeaux. Start with the $20 El Enemigo Malbec or the $19 Garzón Albariño by the glass, and confirm current prices before you order. This unrated guide covers the posted list, not service, storage or markups.
· Miami · French Brasserie
La Grande Boucherie Miami is a Champagne list wearing a restaurant costume — deep on grower producers, light on everything else, and priced like it knows it has you cornered. If you are here specifically to dig into a blanc de noirs from the Côte des Bar or split a bottle of Larmandier-Bernier ($190/bottle) over dinner, this is genuinely one of the more interesting Champagne programs in Miami. Everyone else should order the Chablis and move on.

· Miami · Seafood Steakhouse
Truluck's Miami isn't a wine destination — it's a seafood restaurant that happens to have eight wines on a menu. If you're here for stone crab or a special occasion dinner, you'll find something adequate to drink, but you won't find anything to get excited about. Order a cocktail or bring your own expectations down a notch.

Coral Gables · Miami · Italian
An Italy-first list built around Piedmont and Tuscany, with a four-vintage Burlotto Barolo vertical, three vintages of Sassicaia and a 16-bottle Brunello section plus special-vintage Brunellos. Start with a Coravin pour or a quartino, then ask for bottle prices, because this version of the list posts none and carries no printed date. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Miami · Miami · Italian
A long, Italian-first list where Barbaresco, Barolo and Brunello each get their own block and several producers list multiple older vintages. If you want a safe Tuscan red by the glass, ask for the Castello di Volpaia Chianti Classico 2020; if you want something stranger, ask about the Zidarich Vitovska, and ask the price either way because none is posted. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups. The list carries no printed date, so confirm current availability.
Jungle Island · Miami · Mediterranean Beach Club
A glass-first list with a top end that reaches Barolo at $29 a glass and Dom Pérignon at $95. Order the Bico da Ran Albariño with the Grilled Octopus, or ask about Sunset Hour for the $8 AIX Rosé: its menu says Monday through Friday, 4 to 7 pm at the bar and lounge, but the homepage lists Tuesday as closed and the Beach Lounge as closed Monday and Tuesday, so check before you go. Confirm prices before you go, since the PDFs carry no printed date. This unrated guide covers the posted glass list and Sunset Hour menu, not service, storage or markups.
