Wingman Metrics
Atlas holds a Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence, which puts it in rare company globally and in a class of its own in Atlanta. The numbers tell the story: 900 selections, 75 wines by the glass, and a cellar that spans every major wine region on earth. This is not a list you skim. You study it. The Burgundy section alone could occupy an entire dinner conversation. The by-the-glass program is one of the largest in the Southeast, which means you can explore without the commitment of a full bottle on a Tuesday.
Located inside the St. Regis Atlanta, the room is wine list. Art collection on the walls. White tablecloths. Service that operates at the pace of fine dining without the stiffness that sometimes comes with it. The sommelier team here is deep, and they enjoy guiding diners through the list enjoy building it.
If you have one special-occasion dinner in Atlanta and wine matters to you, Atlas is the answer. The 75 BTG program alone justifies the visit. The food is excellent New American fine dining, but the wine program is why this restaurant exists in this guide at the highest level. Ask about allocated wines and library selections. They have things here that most Atlanta diners do not know are available.
The Bottom Line
Atlas has the deepest wine program in Atlanta. 900 selections, 75 by the glass, Wine Spectator Best of Award. This is the city's wine destination for serious drinkers.
· Atlanta · Modern Latin
Botanico isn't trying to out-depth the wine bars — it's building a short, intentional list that mirrors its Modern Latin identity, and mostly it works. The by-the-glass availability is excellent, the producers are genuinely interesting, and the Vale de Bomfim and Monte Xanic chenin blanc alone are worth the detour. Markups keep this from being a steal, but if you're here for the food and want a wine that actually makes sense with it, you won't be left stranded.

Buckhead · Atlanta · Italian
Cucina Baci earns its place as a reliable neighborhood Italian — the kind of spot where the wine list won't blow your mind but it won't embarrass you either. If you're going for the pizza, the pasta, and the warm room energy, order something Italian and red and let the evening do the work. We'd want a full look at the list before calling it anything more than that.

· Atlanta · New American / Tasting Menu
Choose your courses, then choose your glasses. Bacchanalia's posted pairings give you concrete options: Carl Loewen Riesling at $24 with crab, or Ca' La Bionda Ripasso at $27 with duck. Ask which suggestions match tonight's menu before committing to the wine bill.
Midtown · Atlanta · Southern European
Start with the $14 Vostinic-Klasnic Ikons if you want to explore beyond familiar grapes, or the $16 chilled La Galoche Gamay if that's your lane. Lyla Lila's posted glass list makes trying something different a one-glass decision, not a whole-bottle commitment.
· Atlanta · New American
Siren has a wine list that punches above its weight in a few key areas — particularly the by-the-glass whites and the Champagne bottle program — but the markup structure means you're spending real money to access it. If you're the kind of diner who wants to order Furmint on a Tuesday night in Atlanta, this is one of the few places that makes that possible, and that alone earns it a spot on the shortlist.
