Lautrec

Six original Toulouse-Lautrec lithographs, Moulin Rouge drama, and a wine list that opens with Domaine de la Romanée-Conti — Lautrec is not playing games. This is a resort fine dining room that actually earned its Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence, and has held it since 2011. You feel the seriousness of the program before the bread basket hits the table.

Four hundred to six hundred bottles anchored in France, with Burgundy and Bordeaux doing the heavy lifting — Domaine Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet and Louis Jadot Gevrey-Chambertin represent the approachable end, while Château Pétrus and Château Margaux sit at the top for the big spenders. California gets a proper seat at the table with Screaming Eagle, Opus One, and Caymus Special Selection, and Italy shows up with serious players in Gaja Barbaresco and Antinori Tignanello. This is not a list assembled by a purchasing manager clicking through a distributor catalog — someone with genuine knowledge built this. The gaps are minimal; the depth is real.

With 15 to 25 pours available, the by-the-glass program is generous for a restaurant operating at this level, where most comparable rooms push you toward bottles. We'd expect the glass list to skew toward accessible Burgundy and Bordeaux-adjacent options that echo the cellar's strengths without cracking open the heavy hitters. Rotation details aren't publicly documented, but at a property like Nemacolin, expect the list to move with the season.
