Wingman Metrics
Botica's wine list is short, tidy, and honest — 14 bottles, almost all available by the glass, priced uniformly at $12 a pour or $48 a bottle. It's not trying to impress anyone, which is kind of refreshing. The Spanish-leaning selections give it just enough personality to avoid feeling like a hotel bar menu.
The list leans into the restaurant's Spanish identity with a Martín Códax Albariño and a Marqués de Cáceres Crianza Tempranillo anchoring the Iberian section, plus a Care Garnacha-Syrah for good measure. Beyond that, it goes pretty mainstream — Black Stallion Cab, Böen Pinot Noir, Barone Fini Pinot Grigio — labels you'd recognize from a chain restaurant. The Lolea Sangrias (sparkling red and white) are a fun, thematic touch that most wine lists wouldn't bother with. There's no depth to speak of, no old-world exploration beyond Spain, and no real surprises, but the lineup is clean and coherent for what Botica is trying to do.
Thirteen of the fourteen bottles are pourable by the glass, which is an unusually high hit rate and genuinely useful. The flat $12/glass pricing across the board keeps things simple — no mental math required. The glass program doesn't rotate or push anything exciting, but having the Albariño and the Garnacha-Syrah available by the pour gives you a reason to actually engage with it.
The Bottom Line
Botica's wine list does its job without asking too much of you — or of itself. The Spanish anchors (Albariño, Tempranillo, Garnacha-Syrah) are well-chosen and fairly priced, and the near-universal by-the-glass availability means you can graze through the list as freely as the tapas menu. It won't blow anyone's mind, but it won't embarrass anyone either.

Brookhaven · Atlanta · New American/Southern
Roc South is a genuinely fun restaurant — the food sounds great and the vibe is undeniable — but the wine program doesn't give us enough to work with or get excited about. Until there's a verifiable list with real producers and fair pricing, let the bartender guide your evening instead.

Park 82 has a wine list in the same way a gas station has a wine selection — technically present, practically limiting. If you're a Pinot Noir devotee who doesn't mind paying restaurant markup for bottles you've seen at Kroger, you'll survive. Everyone else should probably lead with cocktails and ask what's on tap.

Tabla's wine list punches above its weight for an Asian restaurant in Atlanta. The white-heavy, aromatic-focused selection makes genuine sense with the food, pricing at the entry level is fair, and the BTG depth is real. We'd send a friend here for wine without hesitation — just order the Grüner first.

MCK isn't trying to be a wine destination — it's a bar and restaurant with a list built for toasting and crowd comfort. The sparkling program punches above the list's weight, the by-the-glass selection is generous, and the markups on still wines are steep but not outrageous. Send a friend here if they want Champagne and something easy to sip; send them somewhere else if they're chasing a wine experience.

Blue Moon Brewery & Grill is a beer bar first, second, and third — the wine list exists so your friend who doesn't drink beer doesn't feel stranded. If that's the situation, the Cava at $9 or the Elouan Rosé at $10 are perfectly fine. But if wine is the reason you're going out, go somewhere else.

· Atlanta · Thai
Pink Lotus has built a wine list that takes its cues from the food — acid-forward, bubbles-heavy, and genuinely curious — which is more than most Thai spots in town bother to do. Markups are fair, the by-the-glass selection is wide, and there are real finds here if you look past the Dom Pérignon showpiece bottles at the top. If you're eating Thai in Atlanta and you want something interesting in your glass, this list deserves your attention.

Lola's wine list is an afterthought in a room built for tequila, and that's honestly fine — just go in with the right expectations. If you need wine, grab the J. Lohr Cab or take a flier on the Frisk Riesling, but this is not the place to get excited about what's in your glass.

Village Green · Smyrna · Spanish/Latin
Porch Light earns a Wild Card badge not because it's a destination wine list, but because a Latin kitchen in suburban Smyrna with a regionally coherent wine program is quietly doing more than it has to. We'd want a return visit with full menu in hand before we can tell you exactly what to order — but the food-wine alignment here is real enough to make the trip worth it on its own.

Dos Caminos Atlanta is not a destination for wine — not even close. The list is nine crowd-pleasing labels with steep glass markups, one Spanish wine on a Spanish-concept menu, and no signs that anyone has thought hard about this program. If you're here, drink the Tempranillo or order a cocktail and move on.
