This is a single-family list: the lounge describes itself as featuring “Pinot Noirs, Chardonnays, and méthode champenoise sparkling wines of Oregon’s Domaine Serene and France’s Château de la Crée and Maison Evenstad,” inside the Sentinel Hotel. The wine page is a two-page PDF linked as “Flights & Food” (file name PDX_Wine.Food_9.4.26) with no printed date, so confirm current availability. This unrated guide covers that posted list, not service, storage or markups.
Five flights organize the list: the Sommelier Flight at $95, the Estate Flight at $45, the Prestige Flight at $40, and the Burgundy and Sparkling Flights at $50 each. Individual wines are posted with two prices separated by a bar and no unit labels, such as the 2022 Domaine Serene Côte Sud Vineyard Chardonnay at $29 | $105. The Burgundy Flight pours from the lounge’s sister winery in Santenay: Château de la Crée Maranges Sur le Bois Chardonnay ($19 | $70), Maranges Le Goty Pinot Noir ($24 | $80) and Domaine Evenstad Nuits-Saint-Georges Longecourts Pinot Noir ($24 | $95). The list has no wines from outside the Domaine Serene, Château de la Crée and Maison Evenstad families.
The list does not label its two prices as glass or bottle, so read “$14 | $44” as posted rather than assuming units; ask your server which is which. Thirteen wines carry a pair, from $14 | $44 for the NV Domaine Serene ‘r’ XV Rosé to $39 | $145 for the 2018 ‘Evenstad Center for Wine Education’ Commemorative Cuvée Pinot Noir. If you would rather taste across wines, the five flights run $40 to $95.
The Bottom Line
A one-family list built around flights, Oregon bottlings and Burgundy from the sister winery. Try the $50 Sparkling Flight with oysters, or the $14 | $44 ‘r’ XV Rosé for the lowest-priced wine on the page, and confirm current availability and which price is the glass, since the list does not say. This unrated guide covers the posted flights and wine pairs, not service, storage or markups.

Pearl District · Portland · Italian/Mediterranean
A restaurant list with 15 pours by the glass from $11 to $17 and a bottle list from 40 to 1100, split by country. Start with the Hacienda Lopez de Haro Rioja Crianza '22 at $12, or the Tenuta di Lilliano Chianti Classico '22 at $16 alongside the Radiatore, and confirm prices because the list is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Southeast Portland · Portland · Charcuterie/American
A charcuterie restaurant with a natural-leaning wine list and a 12-pour glass list on the dinner menu.

This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
King · Portland · Spanish
A Spanish tapas-bar wine page with glass and bottle prices from 13/50 and a ten-sherry list. Start with the Pago del Cielo Celeste Verdejo at 13 a glass, try the chilled Vara y Pulgar Tintilla at 17 if you want something different, and order the Miquel Pons Cava with the croquetas. The page says the posted menu may differ from the restaurant's, so confirm prices. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Downtown · Portland · New American with Asian Influences
A long list sorted by style, with glass pours from $9.50 to $20, a Coravin tier above that, and bottles that climb to $750. Start with the A to Z at $13.50 or the Roederer Estate Brut at $20, and confirm current prices because the list isn't dated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Alberta Arts · Portland · Italian
An Italian-leaning bottle list with an Oregon side, and no glass pours posted.

This unrated guide covers the posted Spring & Summer ’26 beverage menu, not service, storage or markups.
Buckhead · Atlanta · French-American
St. John has the bones of a place worth drinking well at — a thoughtful regional spread, a dining room that takes itself seriously, and a menu built for wine-friendly food. But without confirmed list details or pricing, we can't promise the experience lives up to the setup. Go for the Welsh Rarebit and the mood, and ask your server what they're excited about on the list — that answer alone will tell you what kind of night you're in for.

Downtown · Aspen · French-American
Cache Cache is the rare mountain-town restaurant where the wine list is legitimately worth the trip — deep Burgundy, proper storage, and staff who know what they're talking about. Markups are steep (this is Aspen), but the selection and execution earn the badge.
