Margaritas First, Wine a Solid Second

The wine list at Borracha is clearly a supporting act — the cocktail and tequila programs are the headliners here, and nobody's pretending otherwise. You flip to the wine page and find a compact, familiar roster of names that feel more grocery store aisle than curated cellar. That said, it's not a disaster, and for a buzzy suburban cantina, it gets the job done.
About 18–24 labels spread across California standards, a Mendoza Malbec, and a couple of Champagne options that feel a little out of place next to the queso fundido. Rodney Strong Merlot, Robert Mondavi Cab and Pinot Noir, and Graffigna's Centenario Malbec anchor the reds — nothing adventurous, but nothing broken either. The most interesting entry is the Cascinetta Vietti Moscato d'Asti, which at least signals someone paid attention to at least one region. Don't come here hoping for Ribera del Duero or a left-field natural pour — this list was built for people who order wine because they don't feel like a margarita.
Roughly 12–14 wines available by the glass, which is actually a generous count for a restaurant where wine is an afterthought. Prices run $11–$39 per glass, and the spread covers most of the list's bottles, so you can try before you commit. No indication of regular rotation or any by-the-glass program with real ambition — what's on the list is what's on the list.
Cascinetta Vietti Moscato d'Asti — $14/glass, $55/bottle
Vietti is a legitimate Piedmont producer making serious wine across their portfolio, and the Cascinetta is a genuinely good Moscato d'Asti — low alcohol, lightly fizzy, and more interesting than anything else on this list. At $14 a glass in a Henderson cantina, it's a relative bright spot.
Telmont Brut Réserve
Telmont has been getting real attention since Leonardo DiCaprio took a stake and pushed them toward sustainable viticulture — it's a legit Champagne house that most people at this table won't recognize. If you're going to spend up, this is the one worth knowing about on this list.
G.H. Mumm Cordon Rouge Grand Brut
At $39 a glass and $140 a bottle, Mumm is working hard on brand recognition and light on substance. You can find this at any hotel minibar or airport lounge. The Telmont is more interesting for slightly less money — there's no reason to go here.
Graffigna Centenario Reserve Malbec + Carne Asada Tacos
Mendoza Malbec and charred beef is a combo that works whether you're in Buenos Aires or Henderson. The Graffigna's dark fruit and soft tannins hold up against the smoke and salt without overpowering the taco's toppings.
✔️ The Bottom Line
Borracha is a tequila bar that also sells wine, and the list reflects that priority clearly. If your crew is on margaritas and you want a glass of something approachable, you'll find it — just don't show up expecting a wine destination.
Galleria · Henderson · American Sports Bar & Grill
Twin Peaks Henderson is a sports bar — a good one, by all accounts — and you should treat it like one. Drink the beer, it's served ice cold and that's the whole idea. The wine list is an afterthought, and ordering from it feels like asking a bounce house rental company for fine dining recommendations.

BJ's wine program is a placeholder, not a destination — but the Tuesday/Wednesday half-price bottle deal makes it a functional option if you're already here for the Pizookie and the company. Don't come for the wine; stay for the beer.

King's Fish House Henderson isn't a wine destination and doesn't pretend to be — but the list is fairly priced, the glass pour options are plentiful, and there are smart choices in there if you know where to look. Send a friend here for the oysters and tell them to skip the Santa Margherita.

Eastern & St. Rose · Henderson · Seafood and American
Bonefish Grill Henderson isn't a wine destination — it's a reliable neighborhood option that does just enough right to avoid embarrassing itself. Send a friend here if they want a decent glass with good seafood and zero drama; just don't expect the list to excite anyone who actually cares about wine.

The Cheesecake Factory wine list is fine — and fine is the ceiling. Come for the dessert and the company; order the wine if you must, but don't expect it to be the highlight of your night.
