First Impression
Seasons 52's wine list reads like a greatest hits compilation—safe, recognizable, built for the corporate dinner crowd. The list leans heavily on household names and approachable regions, with a clear mandate to keep things friendly for expense accounts and anniversary dinners. Nothing here will challenge you, but nothing will embarrass you either.
Selection Deep Dive
The selection skews heavily toward California and a few Old World standards—Napa Cabs, Russian River Pinots, and the obligatory Malbec from Argentina. You'll find familiar producers like La Crema, Josh Cellars, and Kendall-Jackson alongside a sprinkling of Italian Chiantis and French Côtes du Rhône. The list avoids natural wines, orange wines, or anything remotely adventurous. It's built for volume and comfort, with maybe 40-50 bottles total and zero interest in deep regional cuts or small producers.
By the Glass
Expect 12-15 by-the-glass options that rotate seasonally but never stray far from the formula. You'll see a Sonoma Chardonnay, a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, a Pinot Grigio, and a couple of reds that won't offend anyone at the table. Pours are generous and priced around $9-13, which is fair for what you're getting. The glasses themselves are basic stems or stemless tumblers—functional but forgettable.
Chateau Ste. Michelle Riesling — $32
Washington's most reliable Riesling at a price that doesn't punish you—bright, versatile, and pairs with half the menu
Banfi Chianti Classico Riserva
Buried mid-list, this Tuscan overdelivers with real structure and aging potential most diners skip for the Cabs
Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon
At $95+ it's the predictable splurge pick, but you're paying for the name on a wine that's readily available elsewhere for $30 less
King Estate Pinot Noir + Cedar Plank-Roasted Salmon
Oregon Pinot's earthy berry notes cut through the cedar smoke while matching the salmon's richness without overwhelming it
✔️ The Bottom Line
Seasons 52 won't wow wine geeks, but it won't gouge you either. It's the restaurant equivalent of a solid playlist—you know every song, nothing's a skip, and sometimes that's exactly what you need.
