First Impression
The wine list at Eurasia reads like a greatest hits album from Napa and Sonoma — Silver Oak, Kosta Browne, Spottswoode, Dom Pérignon. It's polished, confident, and built for people who already know what they want. What it lacks in adventurousness, it makes up for in execution.
Selection Deep Dive
The list leans hard into California prestige — Napa Cabs, Russian River Pinots, and a handful of Champagne anchors. Kosta Browne's One Sixteen Chardonnay at $170 and Cirq Pinot Noir at $265 signal that this isn't a budget operation. Willamette Valley and Barossa get token representation, but don't expect any deep dives into Jura, Ribera del Duero, or anywhere that might surprise you. If you love the California canon and don't mind paying for it, the list delivers exactly what it promises.
By the Glass
Twenty options by the glass is a genuinely solid count for a restaurant of this size and format — that's real range. The specific pours aren't fully itemized in public data, but given the bottle list's California bent, expect heavy rotation of Napa and Sonoma staples. Whether those pours rotate with intention or just sit unchanged for months is unclear, but the sheer number gives you options.
Schramsberg Blanc de Blancs — $87
Schramsberg is California's most serious traditional-method sparkling house, and $87 is about as close to fair as you'll find on a restaurant list. It's a sharp, precise bubbly that punches above its price and holds its own against bottles costing twice as much.
Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon
At $262 it's not cheap, but Spottswoode is consistently one of the most underrated names in Napa — organic farming, old-school elegance, none of the Parker-bomb showiness that defines the valley's louder players. Most tables walk past it for Silver Oak out of habit. Don't.
Dom Perignon
At $340, Dom is a reliable splurge everywhere — but it's also the single most marked-up bottle of bubbly on this list relative to retail. The Schramsberg does the job at a quarter of the price. Dom here is pure table-side theater, not value.
Kosta Browne One Sixteen Chardonnay + Sauteed Shrimp & Grits
Rich, textured Russian River Chardonnay against creamy grits and plump shrimp is the kind of pairing that makes sense on a molecular level. The wine's weight and subtle oak mirror the richness of the dish without steamrolling the briny sweetness of the shrimp.
✔️ The Bottom Line
Eurasia plays it safe with a California-forward list that prioritizes prestige over discovery — and for Norfolk, that's not a bad thing. Go for the Schramsberg, consider the Spottswoode, and know that you're paying a premium for a polished room and a reliable experience.
