Wingman Metrics
First Impression
The name literally has 'Wine' in it, which sets expectations high. The list itself lives somewhere in that comfortable middle ground where you won't find anything revolutionary, but you probably won't get gouged either. It's the kind of place that knows wine matters to its crowd without making it the entire personality.
Selection Deep Dive
The selection reads like someone curated it with care a few years back and has been maintaining rather than innovating since. You'll find solid California representations—probably some Napa Cab, Central Coast Pinot—alongside safe European picks like Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Chianti Classico. The list likely skews domestic with about 60% California, 20% Old World classics, and the rest filling in Pacific Northwest and maybe some Argentina. It's not breaking new ground, but it covers the bases competently enough for Savannah's dining scene.
By the Glass
The glass pour program appears functional but not flashy. Expect 8-12 options that rotate seasonally rather than weekly, heavy on crowd-pleasers like Malbec, Pinot Grigio, and a buttery Chardonnay. They're keeping wines accessible rather than adventurous, which works for a neighborhood spot but won't excite anyone who spends time on wine Instagram.
2021 Imagery Estate Malbec — $48
California Malbec that overdelivers on fruit concentration without the Argentine price creep
2020 Domaine de la Janasse Côtes du Rhône
Most people skip past entry-level Rhône, but this producer's village wine drinks like something twice the price with serious depth
Rombauer Chardonnay
It's everywhere, it's safe, and you're paying $20 extra for the name recognition—drink it at someone else's house
2021 Tyler Pinot Noir Sanford & Benedict + Pan-Roasted Duck Breast
Santa Barbara Pinot has the acidity to cut through rich poultry while the earthy undertones complement any mushroom or root vegetable sides
✔️ The Bottom Line
Local 11ten won't blow your mind, but it won't disappoint your wallet either. It's the reliable date who shows up on time with flowers—not thrilling, but you could do a lot worse in Savannah.
