Walk into the Million Dollar Cowboy Bar and you're immediately hit with saddle barstools, neon signs, and live country music loud enough to rattle your glass. The wine list feels like an afterthought tucked behind the whiskey menu — because it is. Nobody rode into this honky-tonk looking for a Burgundy.
The list runs maybe 10 to 15 bottles deep, and it's California all the way — the kind of approachable, label-recognizable wines that tourists feel comfortable ordering without asking questions. There's no regional adventure here, no Old World representation, and no real effort to surprise. What you get is a short roster of crowd-pleasers that could have been pulled from a hotel minibar program. The Veuve Clicquot appearance is the one curveball, and they make you pay dearly for it.
By-the-glass options land somewhere between four and eight pours depending on the night, and rotation isn't something this bar seems to think about much. The Angels and Cowboys Rosé is actually a bright spot — it's priced below retail, which is a genuine anomaly in a tourist town. Beyond that, expect the usual suspects served at bar temperature.
Angels and Cowboys Rosé — $14
This bottle retails around $22 and they're pouring it for $14 — yes, below retail. In Jackson Hole, where everything carries a tourist tax, that's genuinely remarkable. Grab it before they notice.
Angels and Cowboys Rosé
Most people in a cowboy bar are reaching for bourbon, which means this rosé gets ignored. It's a solid, well-made wine priced at a steal. Order it loud and proud.
Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label Brut
At $150 for a bottle that retails for $60, this is a 150% markup on a wine that's already everywhere. There's no reason to pop Veuve at a honky-tonk when you can grab it for a third of the price at any liquor store down the road.
Angels and Cowboys Rosé + Bar Snacks
When the food menu is mostly bar bites and you need something that won't fight whatever lands in front of you, a dry, fruit-forward rosé is the right call. It's the most versatile pour on the list and the best priced.
❌ The Bottom Line
The Million Dollar Cowboy Bar is a bucket-list experience for the atmosphere, the live music, and the saddle you'll be sitting on — not the wine. Order the rosé, pocket your savings, and let the whiskey crowd carry the night.
Jackson Town · Jackson Hole · Barbecue
Bubba's doesn't pretend to be a wine destination, and we respect the honesty — but the list is the definition of set-it-and-forget-it. Order a beer, enjoy the ribs, and save your wine curiosity for somewhere that reciprocates.

Teton Village · Jackson Hole · Outdoor Bar
The Handle Bar is the kind of wine program that does exactly what it needs to do for its setting — no more, no less. You'll drink well here if you pick smart, but this isn't a destination for wine people so much as a very competent resort bar that happens to have Opus One on the list.

Downtown Jackson · Jackson Hole · Cafe / Bakery
Persephone isn't a wine destination, but it absolutely punches above its weight for what it is — a bakery-café with a genuinely thoughtful short list of natural pours at fair prices. If you're in Jackson and want a glass of something interesting without the steakhouse markup, this is your move.

Town of Jackson · Jackson Hole · French-Inspired Bistro
The Bistro earns its stripes as a reliable wine destination in Jackson Hole — the sommelier influence is visible, the European focus is coherent, and the list has depth worth exploring. Just go in knowing the markups are hotel-resort territory, and steer toward the Old World bottles where the curation is strongest.

East of Jackson · Jackson Hole · Steakhouse / Grill
The Grill at Spring Creek Ranch delivers a competent, crowd-pleasing wine list that matches the lodge aesthetic perfectly — reliable, a little expensive, and zero risk. If you're here for the views and the bison, you'll drink well enough; just don't come expecting the list to match the drama outside the window.

Town Square · Jackson Hole · Tapas / Wine Bar
Bin22 is the wine bar that has no business being this good in the middle of Wyoming ski country, and that's exactly why we're sending people here. If you're in Jackson Hole and you care about what's in your glass, this is the only address that matters.
