Blu Wolf's drink menu has 11 wines: four reds and seven whites, priced $10 to $13. The menu never says glass or bottle, so ask before you order. The restaurant describes itself as a neighborhood gastro pub pairing comfort food with a lively bar-room feel, and the list reads that way: familiar labels, no vintages.
Reds: Love Noir Pinot Noir and Joel Gott Palisades Red Blend at $10, The Show Malbec (Argentina) at $11, Josh Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon at $12. Whites: Cupcake Moscato and Ruffino Lumina Pinot Grigio at $10, Chateau Ste. Michelle Riesling (Washington), The Crossing Sauvignon Blanc (New Zealand) and Seaglass Chardonnay at $11, Fleurs de Prairie at $12, and Harvey & Harriet White Blend at $13. Seven of the 11 are from California, with one each from Argentina, Washington and New Zealand, and the Ruffino Lumina Pinot Grigio printed as New York. No vintages are posted.
The wine section lists prices of $10, $11, $12 and $13 with no unit, so the menu does not say whether they are glass or bottle prices. Four wines are $10, four are $11, two are $12 and one is $13. Ask your server how the wines are poured and confirm current prices; the menu is undated.
The Bottom Line
A short, familiar 11-wine list for a gastro pub, with every price between $10 and $13 and no unit posted. Pair the Chateau Ste. Michelle Riesling or The Show Malbec with the Jumbo Chicken Wings, and ask whether those prices are per glass. This unrated guide covers the posted drinks selection, not service, storage or markups.

Woodcliff Hotel & Spa · Rochester · New American
A broad online list with a real Finger Lakes section and a few friendly glass pours.

Downtown · Rochester · American Steakhouse
Char's lists put a real Finger Lakes thread next to the big Champagne and Napa names.
