Wingman Metrics
The wine list at Harry's lands with the confidence of a restaurant that knows exactly who it is — and who it's serving. Four sommeliers on the floor, 400-plus bottles on the list, and a Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence earned in 2024. This isn't a wine program that happened by accident.
California, Burgundy, and Bordeaux are the three pillars holding this list up, and Harry's doesn't wobble. You've got Opus One and Caymus Special Selection anchoring the California side, Domaine Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet representing Burgundy at its most serious, and Chateau Margaux alongside Chateau Lynch-Bages flying the Bordeaux flag. Italy shows up strong too — Gaja Barbaresco and Antinori Tignanello are exactly the kind of names that signal a buyer with genuine range, not just a distributor's greatest hits. The gaps are minor: if you're hunting natural wine or esoteric regions, look elsewhere, but for classic Old World and prestige New World, Harry's delivers.
Twenty to thirty-five options by the glass is a genuine commitment — most restaurants at this price point coast on eight to twelve. The $12–$25 range covers enough ground that you don't have to commit to a bottle just to drink well, and with four somms on the floor, getting a useful pour recommendation isn't a coin flip.
Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvignon — $45–$300+ range (bottle)
Silver Oak is a California Cab that overdelivers on recognition and quality relative to what you'd pay at most South Florida restaurants. It's the sweet spot on a list that skews toward trophy bottles — still a name everyone knows, without the Opus One sticker shock.
Louis Jadot Gevrey-Chambertin
Most tables at Harry's are locked onto Napa Cabs or Bordeaux classified growths, which means the Burgundy section gets slept on. Jadot's Gevrey-Chambertin is the move for anyone who wants complexity and a sense of place without paying Domaine Leflaive prices.
Opus One
Opus One is a genuinely excellent wine, but it's also the most marked-up bottle in any restaurant that carries it. You're paying for the label as much as the juice — and on a list with Stag's Leap and Silver Oak, there are better ways to spend that money.
Gaja Barbaresco + Prime dry-aged ribeye
Gaja Barbaresco has the structure and tannin to stand up to the fat and funk of a dry-aged ribeye, with enough acid to cut through without overwhelming. It's also the kind of bottle that makes a steakhouse dinner feel like an event.
The Bottom Line
Harry's is the kind of place you send someone when they want a serious wine experience without having to explain why. Four sommeliers, a deep classic list, and a Best of Award of Excellence make this one of the strongest wine programs in West Palm — just go in with eyes open on the markups.
Palm Beach Gardens · West Palm Beach · Steakhouse
The Capital Grille Palm Beach Gardens is a reliable wine stop if you're already there for the steak — just don't expect the list to excite you. Lean toward the glass pours, chase the value picks, and avoid the temptation to drop $30 on that Orin Swift.

· West Palm Beach · New American
Kitchen West Palm has no business having the Casanova di Neri Brunello and the Ménard-Geborit Muscadet on the same 13-bottle list — and yet here we are. It's small, priced fairly, and clearly curated by someone who actually drinks wine. Send a friend, order the Ridge.

· West Palm Beach · Wine Bar / Lounge
Le Bar is a stripped-down concept that works because the six bottles it chose are actually worth drinking — unusual for a lounge where wine is often an afterthought. If you want depth, go elsewhere. If you want a smart glass of something Italian while you decompress, this earns its keep.

Give the international and local sections a look before defaulting to Burgundy. Sula at $70 and Old Westminster at $90 offer different budget options. These are posted bottle prices, not guaranteed stock; confirm availability. This menu guide doesn't rate service or cellar conditions.
· Key West · American
Caroline's Café is not a wine destination, and it's not trying to be — the identical pricing across all five house labels makes that abundantly clear. If you're in Key West looking for something interesting in your glass, keep walking; if you just need a cold pour of Chardonnay with your lunch and aren't asking questions, $8 gets you there without drama.
