Wingman Metrics
You open this list and immediately know someone cares. 300+ bottles that span from $8 Manzanilla sherries to aged Barolos, anchored by a sommelier-driven by-the-glass program that doesn't play it safe. This is a Vegas wine list that doesn't insult your intelligence or your wallet.
The Spain game is strong — sherries from Jerez, Mencía from Bierzo, proper depth in Rioja and beyond. California shows up smart with Russian River Pinot and Napa Cab, not just the usual suspects. Italy gets love from Piedmont to Tuscany, and Germany's represented with proper Mosel Riesling. The list feels curated for meat, but there's enough variety to satisfy anyone at the table. No lazy grocery store picks here.
25-35 pours is ambitious for a steakhouse, and the range from $8 to $55 shows they're not coasting. You've got entry-level sherries sitting next to Patz & Hall Chardonnay and $55 Napa Cab. The rotation seems thoughtful — wines that can stand up to José Andrés's bold flavors without getting steamrolled. This isn't a BTG program designed to move leftover inventory.
Dr. Hermann H Riesling — $14
Mosel Riesling at $14/glass when retail is $20? That's 30% under normal pricing. The acidity cuts through fat like a champ, perfect for this menu.
Liquid Geography Mencía
Bierzo's underrated red grape at $13/glass. Bright, rocky, herbal — most people skip it for the bigger reds, but it's brilliant with charcuterie and lighter meat dishes.
Bründlmayer Brut Rosé Reserve
At $100 on the list when retail is $60, this is the one head-scratcher in an otherwise fair-priced program. Plenty of better sparkling values here.
Cordero di Montezemolo Monfalletto Nebbiolo + Vaca Vieja Beef
Barolo-adjacent Nebbiolo at $35/glass meets aged Spanish beef. The wine's structure and tar-and-roses profile elevates the funky, beefy intensity without competing.
The Bottom Line
This is what a serious restaurant wine program looks like in 2025 — deep, fair-priced, staffed by people who know their stuff. If you're eating meat in Vegas and care about wine, this is the move.
Caesars Palace · Las Vegas · French Fine Dining
This is where you come when wine matters as much as the food. The markup is Vegas-steep, but the cellar is world-class and the staff can navigate it. If you're celebrating big or chasing rare French bottles, this is the room.

STK Las Vegas is a bottle-list business masquerading as a wine program — three by-the-glass pours, a roster of safe California hits, and Vegas markups that'll make your eyes water. Order the Whispering Angel at happy hour, grab a bottle of Belle Glos if you're feeling generous, and save the real wine exploration for somewhere that cares.

Diner Ross is doing something genuinely weird and kind of wonderful — a Champagne-forward list inside a Vegas diner is a wild card move that mostly works. Just don't show up expecting range beyond bubbles, and go for the growers before you default to the celebrity bottles.
