Wingman Metrics
The wine list at Fogo de Chão The Woodlands is a tightly curated South American affair — 65 labels, all priced in a range that would make most steakhouse wine programs blush with embarrassment. There's a clear editorial hand here: this is an all-South American lineup, and prices top out under $50 a bottle.
Argentina and Chile do the heavy lifting, with Malbec, Chardonnay, and Torrontés appearing repeatedly across the list. You'll spot familiar names like Catena Zapata, Lapostolle, Montes, and Trivento alongside Fogo's own house label, Jorjão. The list skews toward crowd-pleasing varietals — there's no real diversity in terms of Old World options or adventurous grapes — but within its lane, it's coherent and consistent. The Brazilian sparkling wine representation, with Salton Brut, is a welcome nod to the restaurant's roots.
By-the-glass options are not documented in the available data, so we can't speak to pour availability or rotation. Given the bottle prices sitting mostly in the $18–$33 range, even bottle-splitting makes financial sense at this price point.
The Bottom Line
Fogo de Chão The Woodlands runs a focused, all-South American wine list at prices that are genuinely refreshing for a steakhouse format — nearly everything sits under $35. It's not adventurous, and it won't impress anyone looking for Old World depth, but if you're here for the meat and want a solid bottle to match without getting gouged, this list does the job honestly.

Dunwoody · Dunwoody · Brazilian Steakhouse
Fogo de Chão Dunwoody isn't building a wine destination — it's running a smart, scaled by-the-glass program that keeps the price of entry low and the list familiar enough that you never feel stuck. The $6 South American tier is a genuine win for a night centered on meat and fire. Send a friend here for the Alamos Malbec and the picanha; just don't send them expecting to geek out.

· Tysons · Brazilian Steakhouse
Fogo de Chão Tysons has enough South American options — particularly the Argentine and Uruguayan pours — to keep the wine program honest in the context of a Brazilian steakhouse. The markups are steep and the list doesn't push you anywhere new, but if you stay in your lane (order the Alamos or Zuccardi Malbec, eat a lot of beef), you'll leave happy. Send a friend here for the meat; tell them to keep it simple with the wine.

· San Diego · Brazilian Steakhouse
Fogo de Chão San Diego isn't trying to win a wine award, and it doesn't need to — the mission is keeping 300 people happy while gauchos walk around with swords of meat. What they've built is a functional, fairly priced by-the-glass program with enough South American character to feel intentional. If you're here for the churrasco, order the Catena Catena Malbec at $13/glass and call it a win.
