Joia Beach posts a glass list rather than a bottle list. The current cocktail menu PDF has a By the Glass page with five whites, one rosé, five reds and six Champagnes, priced from $14 for a Pinot Grigio up to $95 for Dom Pérignon Brut, plus a $99 Champagne half bottle. The posted pages carry no bottle list, so this guide sticks to the glass pours and the Sunset Hour deals.
Whites run from Torre Giacomo Pinot Grigio at $14 to Laetitia Ducroux Sancerre at $21, with Aix Vermentino at $15, Bico da Ran Albariño from Rías Baixas at $17 and Frank Family Chardonnay at $18 in between. The one rosé is Whispering Angel from Côtes de Provence at $15. Reds climb from Alta Vista Malbec at $15 and Château de Laborde Pinot Noir at $18 through Clos du Val Napa Cabernet at $23 and Sordo Barolo at $29 to Baron de Barne Margaux at $35. Champagne starts at Taittinger Brut Réserve at $25 and passes Ruinart Blanc de Blancs at $39 and Piper-Heidsieck Rare Brut Millésime at $65. Two Champagne lines are sized: Moët & Chandon Brut in a 187 mL split at $31 and Baron de Rothschild Rosé in a 375 mL half bottle at $99. Dessert wines include Moscato d'Asti, Sauternes and Sandeman Tawny Port. The PDF is linked with a 07-21-26 file name and prints no date, so confirm what is pouring.
The By the Glass page uses a GLS price column for white, rosé, red and Champagne. Sunset Hour, Monday through Friday from 4 to 7 pm and only at the bar and lounge, lists House wines at $8 (AIX Rosé, Colomaé Torrontés) and Premium wines at $12 (Contessa Chiara Prosecco, Domaines Des Loges Sauvignon Blanc, Bedford Cabernet Sauvignon). Sunset Hour also posts two packages: an Oyster Special at $70 (half dozen oysters and one bottle of J Pinot Gris) and a Rosé Bundle at $65 (one bottle of AIX Rosé, Joia Mezze Board and Potato Croquettes). The homepage lists Tuesday as closed and the Beach Lounge as closed Monday and Tuesday, so check Sunset Hour before you go.
The Bottom Line
A glass-first list with a top end that reaches Barolo at $29 a glass and Dom Pérignon at $95. Order the Bico da Ran Albariño with the Grilled Octopus, or ask about Sunset Hour for the $8 AIX Rosé: its menu says Monday through Friday, 4 to 7 pm at the bar and lounge, but the homepage lists Tuesday as closed and the Beach Lounge as closed Monday and Tuesday, so check before you go. Confirm prices before you go, since the PDFs carry no printed date. This unrated guide covers the posted glass list and Sunset Hour menu, not service, storage or markups.
· Miami · French Brasserie
La Grande Boucherie Miami is a Champagne list wearing a restaurant costume — deep on grower producers, light on everything else, and priced like it knows it has you cornered. If you are here specifically to dig into a blanc de noirs from the Côte des Bar or split a bottle of Larmandier-Bernier ($190/bottle) over dinner, this is genuinely one of the more interesting Champagne programs in Miami. Everyone else should order the Chablis and move on.

· Miami · Seafood Steakhouse
Truluck's Miami isn't a wine destination — it's a seafood restaurant that happens to have eight wines on a menu. If you're here for stone crab or a special occasion dinner, you'll find something adequate to drink, but you won't find anything to get excited about. Order a cocktail or bring your own expectations down a notch.

Coral Gables · Miami · Italian
An Italy-first list built around Piedmont and Tuscany, with a four-vintage Burlotto Barolo vertical, three vintages of Sassicaia and a 16-bottle Brunello section plus special-vintage Brunellos. Start with a Coravin pour or a quartino, then ask for bottle prices, because this version of the list posts none and carries no printed date. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Miami · Miami · Italian
A long, Italian-first list where Barbaresco, Barolo and Brunello each get their own block and several producers list multiple older vintages. If you want a safe Tuscan red by the glass, ask for the Castello di Volpaia Chianti Classico 2020; if you want something stranger, ask about the Zidarich Vitovska, and ask the price either way because none is posted. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups. The list carries no printed date, so confirm current availability.
Edgewater · Miami · Latin, South American
This is a list built around the glass page and a deep bottle section, with Argentina and Uruguay getting real space next to Burgundy and Bordeaux. Start with the $20 El Enemigo Malbec or the $19 Garzón Albariño by the glass, and confirm current prices before you order. This unrated guide covers the posted list, not service, storage or markups.
