First Impression

You don't build a 3,900-bottle wine program by accident. This is a serious steakhouse wine list with sommelier expertise backing it, regular wine dinners, and the kind of depth that spans Burgundy, Bordeaux, California, RhĂ´ne, and South America with confidence.

Selection Deep Dive

The list goes wide and deep: left bank Bordeaux like Chateau Duhart-Milon Rothschild Pauillac sits next to Burgundy whites from Domaine Roulot, California legends like Robert Mondavi, Chilean powerhouses like Almaviva, and serious Rhône producers like Domaine de Beaurenard across multiple bottlings. They're not just stocking crowd-pleasers—they're running themed wine dinners (Icons Around the World, producer-focused tastings) which means the list evolves and the staff actually knows what they're pouring. This is a cellar built for exploration, not just pairing with ribeyes.

By the Glass

No specific glass program details surfaced in the research, but given the sommelier presence and the scale of their wine dinner operation, we'd expect a thoughtful selection. The focus here is clearly on bottles—this is a place where you commit to a wine for the evening, ideally with friends who split the bill.

đź’°Best Value

Robert Mondavi Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 — Price varies

A reliable California cab that won't break the bank compared to their allocated Bordeaux—solid choice for steak without the four-figure commitment

đź’ŽHidden Gem

Domaine de Beaurenard Rasteau Grenat 2019

Rasteau gets overshadowed by Châteauneuf but this Grenache-driven red brings serious concentration and spice at a fraction of the cost of its famous neighbor

â›”Skip This

Chateau Duhart-Milon Rothschild Pauillac 2012

The 2012 vintage in Bordeaux was challenging and this fifth growth, while a Rothschild name, will be marked up hard at a steakhouse—better vintages exist on this list

🍽️Perfect Pairing

Domaine Roulot Bourgogne Blanc 2022 + Poached Jumbo Saltwater Prawn with saffron court-bouillon

Roulot's Burgundy blanc brings precise minerality and texture that mirrors the delicate saffron broth while complementing the sweetness of the prawn

🔥 The Bottom Line

If you're serious about wine with your steak and don't mind steakhouse pricing, this is one of Dallas's deepest cellars with staff who actually know how to guide you through it. Just know you're paying for the privilege.
