Wingman Metrics
Walking into Bottled In Bond, you expect to order a Sazerac — and honestly, you probably should. But there's a wine list here, small and unpretentious, that earns a second glance mostly because of what happens on Wednesdays. The cocktail parlour energy dominates, which is both the charm and the caveat.
The list is lean: a handful of recognizable, crowd-friendly bottles anchored by a Matua Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand and the Long Shadows Poet's Leap Riesling out of Washington State. This isn't a destination wine list — it's a supporting cast for a bar program that clearly has its heart in spirits. You won't find obscure Rhône producers or Burgundy deep cuts, but what's here is clean, competent, and sensibly chosen for a room that skews cocktail-first. The regional spread — New Zealand, Washington, California — is fine, just narrow.
By-the-glass specifics aren't well documented, which tells you something: this isn't a place that's built its identity around the pour. What we do know is that bottles are the play here, especially on Wednesdays when the half-price deal makes the entire list suddenly worth exploring. If BTG exists, expect the same short rotation mirroring the bottle list.
Long Shadows Poet's Leap Riesling — Unknown — half-price Wednesday
Poet's Leap is a genuinely serious Washington Riesling from a respected Columbia Valley producer. In a room full of cocktail drinkers, ordering this on a Wednesday at half price is the smartest move at the table — it's food-friendly, unexpected, and underordered.
Long Shadows Poet's Leap Riesling
Nobody comes to a cocktail parlour thinking Riesling, which is exactly why this works. It's a wine with real texture and restraint — and it holds its own against the Caribbean-influenced spice on the food menu in a way that a Cab never could.
Matua Sauvignon Blanc
Matua is perfectly fine grocery-store Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough, but you can grab this at any Kroger for $12. Unless Wednesday's half-price deal brings it down to a laugh, there's nothing here that justifies ordering it at a restaurant markup when there are more interesting bottles (and cocktails) on the menu.
Long Shadows Poet's Leap Riesling + Caribbean-inspired shareable dishes
The slight residual sweetness and bright acidity in Poet's Leap is built for bold, spiced food. Against the Caribbean-leaning mains — think heat, citrus, and seasoning — this Riesling cuts through without fighting the dish. It's one of those pairings that makes cocktail people accidentally become wine people.
Wednesday — All bottles are 50% off every Wednesday at The Parlour concept within Bottled In Bond. A separate TikTok promo also referenced half-off bottles on Thursday, but Wednesday is the confirmed standing deal per current Resy listings.
The Bottom Line
Bottled In Bond is not a wine destination — but Wednesday's half-price bottles turn a modest list into a genuinely good deal, and the Poet's Leap Riesling alone justifies a glass order. Come for the cocktails, stay for the Wednesday wine math.
The Star · Frisco · Burger / Southern Grill
Dee's Table is a burger spot moonlighting as a casual wine destination one night a week, and there's something genuinely likable about that ambition. Don't come here expecting a deep list — come on a Wednesday, order the Wagyu, and see if the wine keeps up.

Legacy West · Frisco · Wine bar & bistro
CRÚ Legacy West is a champagne bar wearing a wine bar costume, and once you accept that, it actually delivers. Go for the bubbles, skip the $260 vanity bottle, and don't expect a world tour of wine regions — but if you want a solid Champagne night in Frisco, this is where you do it.

Rail District · Frisco · Wine Bar & American Small Plates
Eight 11 Place is the kind of spot Frisco needed — unpretentious, lively, and genuinely trying to do wine right in a market that usually doesn't bother. It's not a destination list, but it's absolutely worth stopping in on a weekday happy hour when the prices get friendly and the patio is calling.
