Wingman Metrics
Forty-one wines by the glass out of a 47-bottle list is a genuinely wild ratio — this place wants you drinking by the glass, full stop. The list reads like a greatest-hits compilation: Caymus, Santa Margherita, Wolf Blass. Recognizable, safe, and priced accordingly.
The list spans sparkling, white, rosé, and red with reasonable geographic breadth — there's Bordeaux Blanc, Albariño, Picpoul de Pinet, and a couple of Super Tuscans alongside the expected California Cab crowd. That said, the depth is mostly surface level: a lot of entry-tier producers and approachable house-style wines that prioritize accessibility over character. The two Super Tuscans (Bayle and Trediano La Vite) and the d'Arenberg Drunk Jack Shiraz are the most interesting things on here by a mile. Everything else is squarely aimed at the 'I know what I like' diner, not the curious one.
With 41 of 47 wines available by the glass, this is clearly the entire point of the program. The range by the glass is genuinely broad — you can go sparkling Crémant, Riesling Spätlese, Grenache Syrah blend, or straight Caymus without committing to a bottle. Prices run $10 to $70 by the glass, so the ceiling is real — just make sure you know what you're ordering before that Caymus pour lands on the table.
Picpoul de Pinet — $10
Picpoul is one of the most food-friendly, crisp whites on the planet and it almost always punches above its price. At the low end of this list, it's the move if you want something that actually tastes like a wine decision and not a default.
d'Arenberg Drunk Jack Shiraz
Most people at a list like this are going straight for the Caymus or the Malbec. The Drunk Jack is a McLaren Vale Shiraz from one of Australia's most reliably interesting producers — earthy, dark-fruited, and a genuine step up in character from everything else in the red section.
Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon
Caymus is everywhere, which means the markup is predictably brutal. At $70 a glass — the ceiling on this list — you're paying a premium for a brand name that's been stretched thin by mass production. There are better Cabs on this list for a fraction of the damage.
Señor Guada María Albariño + Seafood dish (chef's selection)
Albariño and anything from the sea is one of the most reliable combinations in wine. The saline, citrus-driven character of a good Albariño cuts through richness and lifts delicate flavors — assuming the kitchen leans into fish or shellfish, this is the glass to have in hand.
The Bottom Line
Peche's wine program is built for volume and accessibility, not discovery — and there's nothing wrong with that if you know going in. Order by the glass, skip the big-name Cabs, and look for the outliers like the d'Arenberg if you want something worth talking about.
Brookhaven · Atlanta · New American/Southern
Roc South is a genuinely fun restaurant — the food sounds great and the vibe is undeniable — but the wine program doesn't give us enough to work with or get excited about. Until there's a verifiable list with real producers and fair pricing, let the bartender guide your evening instead.

Park 82 has a wine list in the same way a gas station has a wine selection — technically present, practically limiting. If you're a Pinot Noir devotee who doesn't mind paying restaurant markup for bottles you've seen at Kroger, you'll survive. Everyone else should probably lead with cocktails and ask what's on tap.

· Atlanta · Asian
Tabla's wine list punches above its weight for an Asian restaurant in Atlanta. The white-heavy, aromatic-focused selection makes genuine sense with the food, pricing at the entry level is fair, and the BTG depth is real. We'd send a friend here for wine without hesitation — just order the Grüner first.

MCK isn't trying to be a wine destination — it's a bar and restaurant with a list built for toasting and crowd comfort. The sparkling program punches above the list's weight, the by-the-glass selection is generous, and the markups on still wines are steep but not outrageous. Send a friend here if they want Champagne and something easy to sip; send them somewhere else if they're chasing a wine experience.

Blue Moon Brewery & Grill is a beer bar first, second, and third — the wine list exists so your friend who doesn't drink beer doesn't feel stranded. If that's the situation, the Cava at $9 or the Elouan Rosé at $10 are perfectly fine. But if wine is the reason you're going out, go somewhere else.

· Atlanta · Thai
Pink Lotus has built a wine list that takes its cues from the food — acid-forward, bubbles-heavy, and genuinely curious — which is more than most Thai spots in town bother to do. Markups are fair, the by-the-glass selection is wide, and there are real finds here if you look past the Dom Pérignon showpiece bottles at the top. If you're eating Thai in Atlanta and you want something interesting in your glass, this list deserves your attention.

· Shelter Island · Restaurant
The Terrace is doing more than most resort wine programs bother to do — 22 by-the-glass options, genuine regional variety, and local Long Island producers given real shelf space. The markup is the friction point: this is resort pricing, and you'll feel it most on recognizable labels like Moët. Lean into the Macari pours and the Chianti Classico Riserva, skip the obvious bottles, and the list more than holds its own for a summer night on Shelter Island.

· Kamuela · Restaurant
Merriman's Waimea runs a lean, genuinely curated wine program that rewards the curious drinker — and the happy hour $10 pours on a list that includes Sancerre and Failla Chardonnay is a deal you shouldn't walk past. If you're on the Big Island and want a glass of wine that actually reflects some thought, this is your stop.

SkyFire's bar list is small but surprisingly self-aware — the Gruet duo gives it local credibility, the Billecart-Salmon and Gautherin Chablis give it real range, and the zero-proof inclusions show someone actually thought about the full table. Markups trend steep as expected for a resort property, so pick your spots wisely. If you're settling in for a high desert sunset, start with the Gruet and let the list earn your next pour.
