Wingman Metrics
When you see a Four Seasons wine list, you brace for a parade of safe brands and punishing markups — and Florie's delivers on both counts. But buried in that short 25-label list is a surprising amount of genuine wine curiosity: a Schloss Lieser Riesling, a Saint-Romain from Armand Heitz, a Gevrey-Chambertin by the glass. Someone here actually cares.
The list skews heavily French with respectable nods to Burgundy — you can pour Domaine Thierry Mortet's Gevrey-Chambertin 2022 or the Armand Heitz Combe Bazin Saint Romain 2022, which is a legitimate find at a hotel bar in South Florida. Beyond France, the breadth is thin: one Argentine Malbec (Terrazas de los Andes), one Washington Cab (Canvasback), one California Pinot (Brewer-Clifton Sta. Rita Hills 2023), and Opus One sitting at the top of the list like a velvet rope. The Cain Cuvée NV 18 adds a bit of Napa intrigue, and the sparkling section earns credit for including the Lucien Albrecht Crémant d'Alsace and French Bloom's non-alcoholic Le Blanc alongside the expected Veuve. Italy gets exactly one entry — the Via Alpina Pinot Grigio — which tells you where the priorities lie.
With 24 of 25 labels available by the glass, this is essentially an all-glass program, which is unusual and genuinely useful for solo diners or tables that can't agree on a bottle. The range runs from $12/glass for the Franzi É Cratzi to $215/glass for Opus One 2019, which is a pour that exists more as a status signal than a drinking decision. The mid-tier glass options — Schloss Lieser Riesling at $21, Minuty Prestige Rosé at $22, Brewer-Clifton Pinot at $35 — give you something worth ordering.
The Bottom Line
Florie's is a hotel wine program that tries harder than it has to, and that counts for something. The all-by-the-glass format is genuinely practical, the French selections show real taste, and a few pours — the Schloss Lieser, the Armand Heitz — would be highlights at any standalone wine bar. The markups are what they are: you're inside a Four Seasons. Go in with eyes open, order the Riesling, and let someone else order the Opus One.

· West Palm Beach · Steakhouse
Ruth's Chris West Palm Beach delivers exactly what the brand promises: a safe, accessible wine list built around familiar producers and crowd-pleasing styles. The all-by-the-glass format is a genuine plus, and a few selections like the Siduri Willamette Pinot and Chalk Hill Chardonnay are worth your time — but markups are steep and the list won't reward curiosity. If you're here for the steak, you'll find something to drink; just don't expect the wine to be the reason you came.

This is not a wine destination, but it's a hotel wine list that actually made an effort — the Dauvissat Chablis and Pazo de Lusco Albariño alone put it ahead of most properties in its category. If you're staying here or dining through for convenience, you won't be stuck drinking plonk, but pricing is almost certainly hotel-inflated, so go in with eyes open and lean toward the selections that show range rather than the obvious crowd-pleasers.

Santucci runs a tight, Italy-focused wine list that rewards the curious — Etna wines, a real Barolo by the glass, a Sicilian Frappato at a fair price. Markup is reasonable across the board, and the all-pours-available-by-the-glass setup is a genuine differentiator in this price range. If you're eating Italian in West Palm Beach and you want to drink something more interesting than the Chianti default, this list earns your attention.

Del Mar is a Reliable pour in a city that doesn't always try that hard at wine — the Coravin program and the 34-glass lineup show real effort, and the Assyrtiko alone is worth the visit if you're ordering seafood. Markups on the California icons are steep, so steer toward the European picks and you'll drink well without feeling taken.

For a pizza and pasta spot, Elisabetta's glass program is legitimately ambitious — 60 options, fair pricing across the board, and enough obscure Italian varietals to reward the curious. We can't speak to staff knowledge or glassware quality from the available data, but if the execution on the floor matches the ambition on the list, this is one of the better wine spots in West Palm Beach, full stop. Go in, skip the Santa Margherita, and let someone at the table order the Brocard Chablis.

Sant Ambroeus Palm Beach is a reliable, if unambitious, wine experience — Italy and France, done cleanly, priced for Royal Poinciana Way. If you're here for the scene, the truffle pizza, and a glass of something Italian and uncomplicated, it delivers. Just don't come looking for value or discovery.

Zaytinya's wine list is one of the more focused and honest Greek programs you'll find at a mid-to-high scale restaurant in D.C. The by-the-glass selection is wide, the pricing doesn't insult you, and the Greek variety depth is genuinely impressive. If you've been waiting for a reason to finally figure out what Xinomavro tastes like, this is your spot.

Zaytinya's wine list is a rare thing in New York: a focused, regionally coherent program that commits hard to Greek and Eastern Mediterranean varieties without making you feel like you need a flashcard to order. The by-the-glass selection alone — 18 options, all under $18, featuring producers most wine lists wouldn't touch — makes this worth visiting even before the food arrives. If you eat here and order a Cabernet, that's on you.

Brassica might be hiding a thoughtful, Spain-forward wine program behind that Waldorf lobby — but we can't confirm it, and hotel dining rooms rarely earn the benefit of the doubt on pricing. If you're eating here for the butter-poached lobster or the rack of venison, go for it. Just keep your wine expectations measured until someone puts the actual list online.
