Wingman Metrics
Walk into Delilah and the wine list feels like a natural extension of the room — aspirational, a little flashy, and unapologetically LA. It's heavy on California cult bottles and Burgundy grand crus, which tracks perfectly with the red-booth, live-jazz, see-and-be-seen energy. This isn't a list built for the curious explorer; it's built for the table dropping $500 a head and wanting something trophy-worthy to match.
The list runs 200-plus bottles with a clear double focus: California prestige and Burgundy royalty. You've got Domaine Leroy, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, and Domaine Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet on the Burgundy side, and Screaming Eagle, Opus One, Harlan Estate, and Kistler anchoring the California column. Ridge Monte Bello and Paul Hobbs Cabernet Sauvignon add a little intellectual credibility beyond the cult-wine vanity shelf. The gaps show up quickly though — there's not much for the table that wants something interesting under $100, and old-world coverage outside of Burgundy and a few French names is thin.
With 20-35 by-the-glass options, this is one of the stronger BTG programs in the supper club category — most places like this phone it in with six forgettable pours. Rotation details are limited, but the breadth suggests you're not stuck choosing between two house wines. Wednesday's half-price wine night is the real sleeper feature here: if you can time a reservation around it, the BTG math gets very interesting very fast.
Dominus Estate Christian Moueix 2020 — $185
In a list packed with four-figure cult bottles, the Dominus at $185 is the most thoughtful play on the menu. It's a serious Napa red from one of the valley's most respected estates, and at this price point it's one of the few bottles that actually makes sense to order without feeling like you're doing something reckless.
Ridge Monte Bello
Every table around you is ordering Screaming Eagle or Opus One for the flex, and meanwhile Ridge Monte Bello — one of the most historically significant Cabernet blends made in California — is sitting there largely overlooked. It's the wine geek's move in a room full of people ordering for the label.
Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
At $850 a bottle with no retail price context, you're paying almost entirely for the name and the story you tell at the table. The wine is exceptional, sure — but in a restaurant setting without transparent markup data, this is a trophy pour, not a value decision. Save it for your own cellar.
Kistler Vine Hill Vineyard Chardonnay 2022 + Lobster pasta
Kistler's Vine Hill Chardonnay at $145 is rich, structured, and has enough acidity to cut through the butter and cream while complementing the sweetness of the lobster. It's the rare bottle on this list where the price feels earned and the pairing feels intentional rather than accidental.
Wednesday — Half-price wine night every Wednesday — applies to wine selections and makes the by-the-glass program significantly more compelling.
The Bottom Line
Delilah earns its Wine Spectator Award of Excellence — the cellar is real, the heavy-hitter producers are legitimate, and Wednesday half-price wine night is genuinely one of the best deals in LA if you time it right. Just go in knowing this list is built for the occasion, not the education, and price accordingly.
Los Angeles · Los Angeles · Wine Bar / Butcher Shop
Butchr Bar is doing something genuinely different: a tight, weird, well-priced wine list in a space where you'd expect a refrigerator of craft beer. Go for the Arneis, stay for the field blends, and don't overthink it.

Buvons is for people who already know what natural wine is and want nine well-chosen pours without a 50-page list getting in the way. If that's you, you'll feel right at home.

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.
· Key West · American
Caroline's Café is not a wine destination, and it's not trying to be — the identical pricing across all five house labels makes that abundantly clear. If you're in Key West looking for something interesting in your glass, keep walking; if you just need a cold pour of Chardonnay with your lunch and aren't asking questions, $8 gets you there without drama.
