Wingman Metrics
The wine list at Roy's Fort Myers is tidy and approachable — 50 labels that cover the familiar hits without trying too hard to be anything they're not. It leans heavily California with some French prestige poured in for good measure, and the by-the-glass count of 29 is genuinely impressive for a restaurant at this level. Nothing here is going to make your jaw drop, but nothing is going to embarrass you either.
The list is built around California — Napa, Sonoma, and the broader Central Valley — with France showing up mostly in the Champagne section via Taittinger, Veuve Clicquot, and Dom Pérignon. Beyond that, you get nods to Australia and Argentina to round things out, though those sections feel thin. The presence of Joseph Phelps Insignia and Caymus signals Roy's knows its clientele wants recognizable trophy bottles, and the house label Roy's by Bianchi Vineyards is worth a look if you're curious — branded collabs like that can go either way. Gaps in Burgundy, anything Italian, and anything remotely natural or esoteric are real, but this isn't that kind of restaurant.
Twenty-nine by-the-glass options is a lot — enough to drink your way through an entire meal without repeating yourself. The range hits bubbles, whites, reds, and likely a rosé or two, which means everyone at the table has a path forward. Whether the pours are being rotated with any intention is less clear, but the sheer volume of options earns real credit.
Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc — $24 (by the glass)
At a 67% markup on a bottle retailing around $30, this is one of the fairer pours on the list. Cloudy Bay is a crowd-pleaser for a reason — crisp, herbaceous, consistently reliable — and at this price it won't feel like a bad decision when the check comes.
Roy's by Bianchi Vineyards
Most people see a house-label wine and assume the worst. But Bianchi is a legitimate Central Coast producer, and a restaurant-branded collaboration often means the wine was spec'd to actually complement the food. It gets skipped constantly in favor of the name-brand bottles — don't let that be you.
Moët & Chandon 'Dom Pérignon'
Dom Pérignon at a restaurant is always a markup exercise, and Roy's is no exception. You're paying for the name, the bottle, and the moment — not because this is the best wine on the list. If you want Champagne, the Taittinger La Française is half the performance anxiety and probably a third of the price.
Bisol Jeio Prosecco Superiore D.O.C.G. + Misoyaki Butterfish
The butterfish is rich, fatty, and deeply savory from the miso marinade — exactly the kind of dish that needs something with bubbles and a little brightness to cut through. The Bisol Jeio is dry enough to handle the umami without clashing and light enough not to fight the delicate fish for attention.
Wednesday — Half off bottles of wine priced $100 and under. Valid in the bar, patio, and main dining room. In-house stock only, dine-in only.
The Bottom Line
Roy's Fort Myers is a reliable wine stop — fair markups, a deep by-the-glass program, and Wednesday's half-price bottle deal on wines $100 and under is legitimately one of the better promotions in the market. Show up on a Wednesday, order the Misoyaki Butterfish, and don't overthink it.
