Wingman Metrics
A 210-label list at a Four Seasons property screams hotel wine program, but Edge actually delivers substance beyond the expected Champagne parade. The glass selection is thoughtful, the depth is real, and someone clearly built this list with intent rather than corporate formula.
California and Champagne dominate, but that's not a lazy choice here — we're talking Flowers Chardonnay and Cristom Pinot Noir alongside the requisite Dom Pérignon. The list shows range beyond the obvious: an Oregon lean, some California red blends like 8 Years In The Desert that suggest someone's paying attention to craft producers. With a sommelier on staff and Wine Spectator recognition, this isn't just a lobby bar phoning it in. That said, 210 bottles is a lot of real estate, and it's hard to avoid some wine list bloat at that scale.
Eighteen by-the-glass options is respectable for a hotel restaurant, and the $16-$65 range shows they're not afraid to pour serious wines without committing to a full bottle. Laurent-Perrier and Veuve Clicquot by the glass is standard Four Seasons fare, but the real test is whether they're rotating seasonal picks or just coasting on the usual suspects. Based on the data, this feels more static than dynamic.
Jermann Pinot Grigio — $15
A 167% markup is the gentlest thing on this list, and Jermann delivers way more character than your average hotel white pour
8 Years In The Desert Red Blend
A California red blend that's not just another Napa cab — this one actually has a story and drinks above its weight class
Rombauer Chardonnay
A 179% markup on butter-bomb Rombauer is hotel pricing at its most predictable — there are better California Chards on this list
Cristom Pinot Noir + Seasonal game preparation
Oregon Pinot with the elegance to handle Edge's refined seasonal American cooking without overpowering delicate proteins
The Bottom Line
Edge delivers a legitimate wine program with real depth and a sommelier who knows their stuff, but those hotel markups sting. If you're expensing it or celebrating something big, this is a safe bet with upside. If you're paying out of pocket, maybe just stick to the Jermann and save your wallet.
· Denver · Steakhouse
STK Denver is a place where wine exists to support a vibe, not to excite a drinker. If you're here for the scene and the steak, grab a glass of Bonanza at happy hour and call it a night — but don't come expecting the wine list to be part of the experience.

Atlas runs one of the most ambitious by-the-glass programs in the Atlanta metro — 48 options with genuine depth, from grower Champagne to Sicilian Nerello to serious Burgundy. The markup is real and the pricing at the top end gets aggressive, but there are legitimate values buried in the list for anyone willing to look past the Dom Pérignon. If you care about wine and find yourself in Sandy Springs, this is where you go.

medley. has no business running a wine list this considered in a small New Mexico mountain town, and yet here we are. Pricing is fair across the board, the selection leans curious over commercial, and the rosé section alone is worth the visit.
