Plane & Level

You don't expect to find Benoît Marguet Champagne and Gaela Wines from Ribeira Sacra on a list in Spring, Texas — and yet here we are. The 45-label list reads like someone actually cares, with a heavy lean toward Spain and France that feels deliberate, not accidental. This is a wine list with a point of view.

The list skews hard Old World, and that's a feature, not a bug. Spain is the backbone — Rioja, Ribeira Sacra, Rias Baixas, Somontano, and Ribera del Duero all show up with credible producers like Gaela Wines, Adega Rey Eneo, and Abadía San Quierce. France holds its own with Champagne from Dumangin and Marguet, a Gilles Lesimple Sancerre from Chavignol, Christophe Patrice Chablis, and a Jean-Philippe Marchand Côtes de Nuits. New World representation is thin — a Father John Pinot Noir from Mendocino Coast is about as far west as this list is willing to go. If you're hunting a big Napa Cab, look elsewhere; if you're into Galician reds and grower Champagne, you've found your spot.

The list distinguishes between by-the-glass and bottle-only options, which tells us there's an active pour program, but the exact count and specific pours aren't fully detailed in available data. Based on the structure, expect a rotating handful of options that likely mirror the Old World slant of the broader list. We'd push the staff to walk you through what's open — the selections here are interesting enough to warrant the ask.
