You open a 30-page wine list and realize this isn't your typical Vegas steakhouse wine program. Over 500 selections spanning Old World heavyweights and serious domestic producers — this is a cellar built for collectors who happen to be eating Wagyu. The iPad wine list interface tells you they're taking this seriously, even if the sheer volume can feel overwhelming.
The depth in Italy alone is staggering: vertical Barolo selections including unicorns like Giacomo Conterno's Cascina Francia 2009 and a 1982 Aldo Conterno Vigna Cicala that probably costs more than your flight here. France, the United States, Spain, and Australia all get proper representation, with enough breadth to satisfy both Burgundy nerds and Napa cab loyalists. This isn't a list designed around food pairing convenience — it's a trophy case that happens to have steaks nearby. The challenge isn't finding something good; it's not getting lost in the options.
The by-the-glass program is a mystery the research doesn't crack, which is concerning for a list this size. At a Wolfgang Puck property with a sommelier on staff, we expect a rotating BTG program with some serious pours, but without confirmation, it's hard to say if they're offering entry points or just assuming everyone's buying bottles. This feels like a missed opportunity to showcase the list's range without committing to a $200+ bottle.
Azelia Barolo 'Bricco Fiasco' 2017 — Price Unknown
If priced fairly, this producer-direct Barolo from a stellar vintage offers classic Nebbiolo character without the trophy tax of bigger names on the list
Camerano Barolo 'Terlo' 2010
A lesser-known producer from a balanced vintage — likely overlooked by collectors chasing Conterno, but delivers authentic terroir expression
Any 40-year-old trophy bottle without provenance details
In Vegas, storage history matters — don't gamble on ancient wines unless the sommelier can walk you through the cellar pedigree
Giacomo Conterno Barolo 'Cascina Francia' 2009 + Dry-Aged Prime Ribeye
The tannic structure and wild cherry intensity of this legendary Barolo needs the fat and char of a properly aged ribeye to show its full range
The Bottom Line
This is a destination list for wine geeks with expense accounts, but the lack of transparency on pricing and by-the-glass options keeps it from being universally accessible. Come for special occasions when you're ready to spend — just bring a sommelier-savvy friend or lean on the staff.
Caesars Palace · Las Vegas · French Fine Dining
This is where you come when wine matters as much as the food. The markup is Vegas-steep, but the cellar is world-class and the staff can navigate it. If you're celebrating big or chasing rare French bottles, this is the room.

STK Las Vegas is a bottle-list business masquerading as a wine program — three by-the-glass pours, a roster of safe California hits, and Vegas markups that'll make your eyes water. Order the Whispering Angel at happy hour, grab a bottle of Belle Glos if you're feeling generous, and save the real wine exploration for somewhere that cares.

Diner Ross is doing something genuinely weird and kind of wonderful — a Champagne-forward list inside a Vegas diner is a wild card move that mostly works. Just don't show up expecting range beyond bubbles, and go for the growers before you default to the celebrity bottles.

Alexxa's is a Strip restaurant doing Strip things — great location, recognizable bottles, pricing that reflects the real estate. If you're here for fountain views and a glass of Cakebread, you'll be genuinely happy; if you're hunting for value or adventure, look elsewhere.

Il Premio is a steakhouse that took its wine list seriously enough to skip the obvious plays, and the result is one of the more interesting Italian-focused lists in Atlanta right now. It's compact, priced fairly across the board, and built for exploration — whether you're going glass by glass through the Italian regions or just need a solid bottle of Chianti Classico at $72 to make a steak dinner feel right. We'd send a friend here specifically for the wine.

Stark's is the rare steakhouse that treats wine as something other than an afterthought or a cash grab. The list is compact but genuinely considered, markups are fair across the board, and the full bottle-to-glass availability is a policy every restaurant should copy. If you're eating in Healdsburg and want to drink well without overpaying, this is a legitimate stop.
