Cliffside Restaurant

The wine list at Cliffside arrives in the shadow of one of St. George's best panoramic views — and honestly, the view is doing a lot of the heavy lifting. About 18 labels across a handful of categories, the list is tidy, inoffensive, and built for people who know what they like and aren't here to be challenged. It's a wine list by committee, designed to not upset anyone.

The list leans heavily on proprietary blends — Tempest Red Blend, 9 Barrel Red Blend, Chanela Red Blend — which tells you the kitchen is prioritizing flexibility over terroir. There's a Sauvignon Blanc labeled 'Exhilarate' and a Riesling and Chardonnay that don't announce their producers, which is never a great sign at upscale price points. No AVAs, no Old World presence, no grower Champagnes or Rhône oddities to get excited about — just a tightly curated domestic-leaning list that keeps things smooth and uncomplicated. If you're hoping to discover something new here, you're probably going to be disappointed.

Six by-the-glass options cover the basics — white, red, and presumably a rosé or two depending on the season — and they price out between $9 and $19 a glass. The range is workable, but there's no real standout program here: no rotating features, no half-glass options, no compelling reason to stray from your usual order. It gets the job done on a date night when you just want something in your hand while the canyon turns gold at sunset.
