Wingman Metrics
The wine list here is a focused South American affair — 64 labels deep but clearly designed to complement the meat parade rather than challenge anyone's comfort zone. Prices top out at $50/bottle, which for a steakhouse feels almost refreshingly modest. It's a list built for crowd flow, not collectors.
Argentina and Chile own this list, full stop. You've got Malbec, Torrontés, Chardonnay, and a few rosés carrying the load, with recognizable names like Catena Zapata, Lapostolle, and Montes doing the heavy lifting on credibility. The white selection is actually more interesting than you'd expect — Amalaya's Torrontés/Riesling blend and Trivento's Torrontés/Viognier/Chardonnay mix show a little personality. What's missing is depth beyond the South American lane: no Old World bottles, no domestic options, nothing for the Burgundy or Rhône crowd.
By-the-glass options are not listed in the available menu data, so we can't confirm what's poured on any given night. Given the chain format, expect a rotating short list of the more accessible labels on the bottle menu — likely the Alamos Chardonnay and Montes Cherub Rosé territory.
The Bottom Line
For a chain steakhouse, Fogo de Chão Troy brings a wine list that at least takes South American wine seriously — fair prices, a few genuinely interesting white picks, and the Catena Zapata and Lapostolle labels lending some real-world credibility. Don't come here for wine discovery, but don't write it off either: skip the house label, order the Lapostolle Cuvée Alexandre, and let the meat do the rest of the work.
· Lone Tree · Brazilian Steakhouse
Fogo de Chão Lone Tree isn't a wine destination, but the sheer volume of by-the-glass options — anchored by solid South American pours — means you won't be stuck nursing something you hate. Stick to the Malbec tier, grab the Garzón Albariño if you're curious, and let the gaucho with the picanha worry about the rest.

· Baltimore · Brazilian Steakhouse
Fogo de Chão Baltimore isn't trying to be a wine destination and doesn't pretend otherwise — the list exists to serve the meat program, and it does that job adequately. If you're here for the churrasco experience, the Catena Vista Flores or the Garzón Albariño will see you through. Just don't expect discovery.

· Addison · Brazilian Steakhouse
For a national chain steakhouse, the Fogo de Chão Addison wine list punches above its weight on price and shows genuine regional commitment — every bottle is South American, which keeps the list coherent even if it limits the range. The Natura Chardonnay at $19 and the Amalaya blend at $20 are honest steals. If you're here for the meat, the wine list won't let you down — just don't expect a deep cellar or a staff that's going to walk you through the nuances.
