Wingman Metrics
Ten wines. That's it. Most places would embarrass themselves with a list this short, but Corima earns it — every single bottle on here has a reason to exist. This is a curated list, not a lazy one, and the difference is obvious the moment you start reading producer names.
The list spans natural-leaning producers from France, Spain, Germany, and what looks like Mexico — a genuinely unusual geographic spread that signals someone with actual taste is making decisions here. You've got Envinate's Lousas from Ribeira Sacra sitting next to a Vollenweider Mosel Riesling, a Fosse-Sèche Saumur white, and a Tavel rosé from Romain Le Bars — old-world focus but without the stuffy predictability. The inclusion of Casa Jipi's Rancho Llano Colorado and La Casa Vieja suggests a specific interest in Mexican wine, which is rare enough in New York that it's practically a calling card. The Buelan Oloroso as a sherry option rounds things out — someone here actually drinks sherry, and that's a good sign.
The entire list appears to be by the glass, which is either brave or brilliant depending on how you look at it — probably both. The categories break down into sparkling, white, skin contact, red, and sherry, meaning even with ten pours, every major style gets a seat at the table. No pricing data surfaced in our research, so we can't tell you what it'll cost, but the range of styles means you can build a full meal's worth of pours without repeating yourself.
Envinate Lousas 2023 — Price not available
Envinate is one of the most respected natural producers working in Galicia right now, and Lousas consistently punches above its retail price. Finding it on a by-the-glass program at any restaurant is a win — it's mineral, tense, and interesting in a way that justifies whatever they're charging.
Buelan Las Canciones No 2 Oloroso
Most diners skip the sherry section without a second thought, and that's exactly why this is the move. A good Oloroso has more complexity than half the red wine list at most restaurants, and Buelan is a serious producer. Order it with food and watch the table turn around.
El Bajio Brut
Without pricing data or more context on this producer, the sparkling by-the-glass slot feels like the least distinctive pick on the list — surrounded by wines with clear identities, this one is harder to justify on name alone. Go for the André Heucq Heritage Brut Nature instead if you want bubbles with a story.
Fosse-Sèche Arcane 2022 + Any seafood or vegetable-forward dish on the menu
Fosse-Sèche's Saumur whites are Loire chenin at its most taut and saline — built for food, not for sipping alone. That mineral tension cuts through richness and amplifies anything bright or briny on the plate. It's the kind of wine that makes the whole table eat better.
The Bottom Line
Corima's wine list is proof that ten well-chosen bottles beat a hundred thoughtless ones every time. If you care about what's in your glass, this place is worth your attention.
SoHo · New York · Italian
A long bottle list with Italian, Burgundy and Champagne sections, fronted by a 22-wine glass page. For a glass, try the Skerk Orange Wine from Friuli at 25/95, and for a bottle on a lighter budget, the Volpaia Vermentino at 60; upstairs in the café, the labeled list pours Palistorti di Valgiano's orange Tuscan blend at Glass $22. Confirm prices before you order, because the site's Upstairs Café dinner menu and the beverage PDF do not match. This unrated guide covers the posted wine lists, not service, storage or markups.
Midtown East · New York · American, French
A Park Avenue restaurant whose posted wine list is a 21-wine glass list. Start with the $18 Leitz Riesling or the $19 Ogier Saint-Joseph. No bottle list is posted online, so ask the restaurant what is available by the bottle. This unrated guide covers the posted glass list, not service, storage or markups.
Hudson Yards · New York · American, Seasonal
A hotel restaurant whose list opens with a 13-pour glass page and then moves through Champagne, Burgundy, Austria and other regions. Start with the $29 Prager Grüner Veltliner or the $24 Do Ferreiro Albariño by the glass alongside the chilled oysters, and confirm current pricing since the list is dated 09.30.26. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
East Village · New York · Southern French, Wine Bar
A glass-only list of 15 Central and Eastern European pours from $18 to $26, with an orange wine section of five. Start with the Gal Tibor Egri Bikavér Superior at $18 or the Kapistoni Tavkveri at $23, and confirm prices because the list is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted by-the-glass list, not service, storage or markups.
Financial District · New York · American
A short posted wine selection, with the full list available by email. Start with the $17 Crafted Cava or the $18 Côte de Brouilly by the glass, and email ahead if you want the full list. This unrated guide covers only the nine posted wines, not service, storage or markups.
East Village · New York · American Steakhouse
A compact glass list at a beef-focused restaurant: 11 pours from $19 to $39 across France, Italy, Germany and California. Start with the $24 Domaine Perraud Chardonnay, or the $30 Signorello 'Edge' Cabernet if you're ordering steak, and confirm current pours because the page isn't dated. This unrated guide covers the posted glass list, not service, storage or markups.
Memorial · Houston · Restaurant
A flexible list for Memorial's upscale tavern: 20 pours by the glass in 6 oz or 9 oz sizes, plus bottle sections for Burgundy, Bordeaux, Piedmont and Tuscany. Start with the $18 Condado de Haza Tempranillo or the $22 Girard Bourgogne by the glass, and look at the Bordeaux spotlight if you are ordering steak. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
· Scottsdale · Restaurant
A long, Burgundy-and-Bordeaux-heavy list with a 24-pour glass page that starts at 13. Try the Maysara Momtazi Pinot Noir 2016 or the Sandy Cove Sauvignon Blanc from the glass page, and confirm what is open and what the two numbers mean. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
· Providence · Restaurant
A mostly Italian and Californian list that is easy to scan but vague about what its two-price entries mean. Order the Terrazas Malbec or the Demarie Arneis, ask which price is the pour, and confirm current prices before you go. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
