Wingman Metrics
This is a wine bar that knows its identity. Walk into Garagiste and you're hit with vinyl records, couches that actually look comfortable, and a list that reads like a sommelier's personal cellar — small producers, off-the-radar regions, wines you won't find at the casino resorts down the street. It's the anti-Vegas wine scene, and that's exactly the point.
With 200-300 bottles deep and a focus on small-production wines from regions most people skip over, this list rewards curiosity. You'll find serious US producers like Ceritas alongside Bordeaux heavy-hitters like Château Leoville Las Cases 2019, but the real fun is in the gaps between — obscure appellations, natural wines, bottles that make you Google the producer mid-glass. The price range ($50-200) feels honest for what they're pouring, and the selection rotates enough to keep regulars coming back. This isn't a greatest-hits playlist; it's a deep cut collection.
40-60 glass pours is absurd for a wine bar this size, and they're not filling that list with Kendall-Jackson. The by-the-glass program rotates actively, which means you're getting fresh opens and the sommelier's current obsessions. This is where you experiment without committing to a full bottle — try that skin-contact Friulano or that funky Jura Chardonnay you've been eyeing.
Ceritas 'Colima' Chardonnay — $50-65 range
California Chardonnay from one of the state's best small producers, likely priced at fair retail markup — this bottle drinks well above its weight
Anything from their rotating small-production US section
The deep bench of American wines beyond the usual Napa suspects — Oregon Pinots, Washington reds, cool-climate California whites that most Vegas spots ignore completely
Château Leoville Las Cases 2019
It's a beautiful wine, but at Vegas pricing and this young, you're paying for the name — explore their lesser-known Bordeaux picks instead
Any skin-contact white from their natural wine selection + Seasoned goat cheese
The funky, textural grip of orange wine cuts through tangy goat cheese while the herbs and seasoning bridge the wine's savory edge
The Bottom Line
This is where Las Vegas wine nerds come to actually drink well. Garagiste is doing the work — sourcing interesting bottles, rotating the glass list, training staff who care — and the Arts District vibe makes it feel like a neighborhood hang instead of a stuffy wine bar. Absolutely send your friends here.
· Las Vegas · Steakhouse
Strip House's all-by-the-glass format is smart for a Vegas crowd that wants to explore without committing, and the list has more personality than most hotel steakhouses — the Testamatta and the Lingua Franca Chardonnay prove someone made actual choices here. Prices skew high at the top end, but the $15–$25 tier offers genuine quality. Come for the steak, stay for the glass pours, and skip the Kosta Browne unless the night calls for it.

· Las Vegas · Restaurant
Summer House is doing more with its wine program than it has to, and in Las Vegas that deserves genuine credit. Fair prices, a thoughtful by-the-glass roster, and a few genuinely interesting picks — the Grüner and the Selbach Riesling especially — make this worth exploring. It's not a destination wine list, but it's a reliable one, and that's rarer on the Strip than it should be.

Hughes Center · Las Vegas · Brazilian Churrascaria
The real story at Fogo de Chão Hughes Center is the Monday-through-Thursday deal: South American bottles under $150 go at half price, all day, in both the dining room and bar. That's a meaningful discount at a format where a table can easily work through a full bottle alongside the picanha parade. If you're going to drink wine here — and you should — plan your visit around that window.

South Point Casino · Las Vegas · Steakhouse
Silverado Steak House isn't trying to win any wine awards, and it doesn't need to — the list is fair, functional, and occasionally punches above its casino-floor weight class. If you're eating steak at South Point and want a solid glass without getting robbed, this list has your back; just stay away from the bottom shelf and head straight for the Davis Bynum or the Symmetry Meritage.

The Strip · Las Vegas · Japanese
Order the $21 glass of Kirinzan Junmai Ginjo, or the $50 Signature Flight if you want three saké side by side. If you prefer wine, the Faiveley Gevrey-Chambertin at $62 by the Coravin glass is the pour to look for. Confirm availability and prices, since the list is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted drinks list, not service, storage or markups.
The Strip · Las Vegas · Steakhouse
Try the $60 half bottle of Cristom Pinot Noir or ask about the $60 Kerner, the lowest full-bottle price, or order the Azelia Barolo at $270 with the Dry Aged New York. Confirm vintages and prices, since the list is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or retail markups.
Southwest Atlanta · Atlanta · Wine Bar
BOSK is quietly doing something interesting in a neighborhood that most Atlanta wine lists ignore completely, and that alone earns it a look. We need more data on specific bottles and pricing before we can tell you exactly what to order, but the concept is right and the vibe is genuinely welcoming. If you're in Southwest Atlanta and want wine without pretense alongside cauliflower bites or a BLT with candied beef bacon, this is your spot.

· Acworth · Wine Bar
Broken Anchor isn't going to satisfy anyone hunting rare bottles or obsessing over markups — but that's not who it's for. If you're in Acworth and want to drink local wine in a room where trivia night is a real possibility, this is your place. We'd send a friend here with the right expectations firmly set in advance.

West Cobb · Marietta · Wine Bar
unWine'd & Tap fills a real gap in West Cobb — a genuinely social wine bar with solid food, good energy on a Friday night, and a staff that seems to care even if they're not Master Sommeliers. We'd send a friend here for a low-stakes date night or a girls' night out, with the caveat that you should explore the list before anchoring to the obvious picks. Reservations on weekends are non-negotiable.
