Wingman Metrics
You're sitting inside an upscale Cantonese restaurant on the Las Vegas Strip, and the wine list opens to Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Domaine Leroy, and Château Pétrus. It's a disorienting but genuinely exciting combination — old-world French prestige locked inside a room built for dim sum and wok smoke. The Wine Spectator Award of Excellence (2023) is well-earned, even if the list skews heavily toward one lane.
The 200-350 bottle list is essentially a love letter to Burgundy and Bordeaux, full stop. Domaine Armand Rousseau, Joseph Drouhin, Louis Jadot, and Domaine Faiveley anchor the Burgundy side while Château Margaux, Château Lafite Rothschild, and Château Pétrus fly the Bordeaux flag. It's a legitimately serious French cellar — sommelier Piotr Szczurko clearly knows his appellations. The gap is everywhere outside France: if you want anything from Italy, Spain, or the New World, you're mostly out of luck.
With 12-20 pours running $15-$40 a glass, the BTG program leans on producers like Louis Jadot and Joseph Drouhin — approachable Burgundy entry points that actually make sense at a Cantonese table. The range is respectable for a restaurant of this type, though don't expect the heavy hitters to show up by the glass. What's there is poured correctly and at proper temperature.
Louis Jadot Burgundy — $15
At the low end of the by-the-glass range, a Jadot Burgundy gives you honest Pinot Noir from a reliable négociant — and in a room full of $300+ bottles, it's the most accessible way to drink well without committing to a trophy bottle.
Domaine Faiveley
Faiveley flies under the radar next to the DRC and Leroy names on this list, but they're making some of the most consistent, terroir-driven Burgundy in the Côte de Nuits. Most guests walk past it chasing the bigger labels — their loss.
Château Pétrus
It's an icon, but Pétrus on a Vegas Strip wine list means you're paying a significant premium on top of an already astronomical price tag. Unless someone else is signing the check, this is a trophy purchase, not a drinking decision.
Domaine Armand Rousseau Gevrey-Chambertin + Wok-Fried A5 Japanese Wagyu Beef Tenderloin
Rousseau's Gevrey has the structure and earthy depth to hold its own against heavily marbled A5 Wagyu without bulldozing the delicate wok char — it's a high-low pairing that actually makes both elements taste better.
The Bottom Line
Genting Palace is a genuinely weird and wonderful wine destination — a French Burgundy and Bordeaux cellar living inside one of Vegas's best Cantonese kitchens. If you're drinking red Burgundy with Wagyu fried noodles and loving every second of it, this list made that possible.
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.
West Las Vegas · Las Vegas · Italian
Order the Franco Serra Barbera d'Asti at $11 a glass or the Murgo Etna Rosso at $14, and ask about the Sommelier Selections flight if you want to taste three wines. Confirm today's list and prices. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or retail markups.
The Strip · Las Vegas · Steakhouse & Seafood
Joe's backs a 24-wine glass list with a bottle list that reaches collector Bordeaux and Burgundy. Order the $12 Zuccardi Serie A Malbec by the glass, or the $55 Cahors by the bottle with the 16 oz Rib Eye, and try the $100 A.F. Gros Moulin-à-Vent if you want a lighter red. The list's pages are dated 9/25/2026 and 10/2/2026, so confirm availability. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
The Strip · Las Vegas · Japanese
Start with the $17 Vouvray Chenin Blanc by the glass, or spend $40 on the Faiveley Mercurey with the Duck on the Rock. Prices come from the Wine Book dated 6.20.2026 and a dinner menu dated 11.26.2025, so confirm what is available. This unrated guide covers the posted wine book, not service, storage or retail markups.
Las Vegas Strip · Las Vegas · American, European
This list leans on California Cabernet, with a few exits. Order the Justin Cabernet at $19.95 a glass if you want a California Cabernet without the 44.95/62.95 Caymus glass price, or take the Ontañón Rioja at 91 a bottle if you want a break from California. If you are doing the tasting menu, the restaurant pairs its Beef Wellington with Caymus Cabernet.
