Bygone's July 23, 2026 wine list describes more than 700 selections with a French focus. The useful move is to set a bottle budget first, then explore beyond the Burgundy pages.
The posted list puts L. Jadot Gevrey-Chambertin 2017 at $200. On the international page, Sula Dindori Reserve Shiraz from India is $70 and Hillinger Hill 1 Merlot Blend from Austria is $110. French emphasis doesn't mean French-only.
The Bottom Line
Give the international and local sections a look before defaulting to Burgundy. Sula at $70 and Old Westminster at $90 offer different budget options. These are posted bottle prices, not guaranteed stock; confirm availability. This menu guide doesn't rate service or cellar conditions.
· Baltimore · Brazilian Steakhouse
Fogo de Chão Baltimore isn't trying to be a wine destination and doesn't pretend otherwise — the list exists to serve the meat program, and it does that job adequately. If you're here for the churrasco experience, the Catena Vista Flores or the Garzón Albariño will see you through. Just don't expect discovery.

Locust Point · Baltimore · Italian
An Italian list that leads with Campania, then works region by region through the rest of Italy. Start with the La Passera Greco di Tufo at 50 for white or the Terredora Aglianico at 48 for red, and if you want Chianti, the Banfi Riserva is 45. Prices come from the wine list linked as "Wine List 24" and post no unit, so confirm what is available. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Harbor East · Baltimore · Italian
Cinghiale's glass list is built for exploring Italy, with 23 pours, each offered in three or six ounces. Try a three-ounce Donelli Lambrusco at $4.50 or Gini Soave Classico 2024 at $6 before committing to a larger pour, then ask about the regional bottle list. Confirm the current list before ordering.
Bel Air · Baltimore · Wine Bistro / Light Bites
A glass list built for tasting around: 25 wines, each at 3 oz and 6 oz, with a much deeper bottle list behind it. Start with the $5 (3 oz) Alta Vista Vive Malbec, then switch to the Maison L'Envoyé Gamay Noir for a lighter red, and confirm current prices before you go. This unrated guide covers the posted drinks list, not service, storage or markups.
Baltimore · Baltimore · Contemporary Bistro
A long list with a steep price ladder: 56 at the bottom and 1875 at the top. Start with the Carl Graff Riesling at 62 or the Monteleone Etna Rosso at 90, and compare the libations sheet before you commit, since many of the same wines carry much lower numbers there. Prices print without units and the pages carry no date, so confirm both with your server. This unrated guide covers the posted wine lists, not service, storage or markups.
Canton · Baltimore · American, Irish, Pub
A short pub list that stays simple and tells you what each wine tastes like. Start with the Kung Fu Girl Riesling at 12 | 36 or the Simi Chardonnay at 13 | 40 next to the crab cake; the page is undated, so confirm what is pouring and ask which number is the glass. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Downtown Roswell · Roswell · American
Canton St. Social is a solid neighborhood restaurant in historic downtown Roswell, and the wine program appears to be built for exactly that — supporting a good night out without overcomplicating things. We don't have enough sourced wine data to tell you what to order, which means your best move is to ask your server what's pouring well that night and go from there. Worth a visit for the food and atmosphere; the wine list is a work in progress as far as our research goes.

· Worcester · American
The Boynton is a great neighborhood spot for a cold beer, a burger, and a game — and that's exactly what it should be. The wine program is along for the ride, not driving the car. If wine matters to you tonight, this isn't your destination; if you're here for the food and the vibe, order a beer and enjoy it.

Downtown Atlanta · Atlanta · American
Hard Rock Cafe Atlanta's wine list is a Lazy List by every measure — grocery store brands, steep markups, no specials, and a rotating staff with little incentive to know what's in the glass. If you're here for the memorabilia and the atmosphere, lean into a cocktail or a beer. If wine is non-negotiable, the Chateau Ste. Michelle Riesling or Columbia Crest Cab will get you through the night without regret.
