Wingman Metrics
Walk into Sidewinders and the wine list is exactly what you'd expect after clocking thirty-plus flat screens and a beer tap lineup longer than your arm. This is a sports bar that also happens to sell wine, which is a very different thing from a restaurant that takes wine seriously. The list reads like a grocery store endcap that someone printed out and laminated.
The entire program is California domestic, start to finish — Kendall-Jackson, Meiomi, Decoy, La Crema. These are recognizable, reliable brands that nobody's excited about and nobody's complaining about either. There's no depth, no regional exploration, no small producers, and absolutely no indication that anyone curating this list has thought about wine since the last menu reprint. To be fair, the pricing is reasonable for Jackson Hole, where everything costs 20% more just because of the zip code — bottles running $36–$60 won't make you wince. But the selection ceiling is low and it shows.
Somewhere between 8 and 12 glass pours depending on the night, all landing in that $9–$14 range, which is genuinely fair money for a tourist-heavy Wyoming town. The problem isn't the price — it's that every pour is a brand you've seen at every chain restaurant from here to Omaha. Rotation appears nonexistent; this list is set and forgotten.
La Crema Chardonnay — $12/glass
La Crema is the most serious wine on this list — Sonoma Coast fruit, better balance than KJ, and at $12 a glass it's the least disappointing choice in the lineup if you're set on white wine with your burger.
Meiomi Pinot Noir
Meiomi is a crowd-pleaser that wine snobs love to dismiss, but at a sports bar with a French onion soup in front of you, it's actually the right call — soft tannins, a little sweetness, goes down easy while you're watching the game.
Kendall-Jackson Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay
KJ Chardonnay is the most boring, ubiquitous pour on any American restaurant list — oaky, a touch sweet, and wildly overexposed. La Crema is right there and it's better in every way.
Decoy Cabernet Sauvignon + Burger
Decoy Cab is soft enough not to fight with a burger bun but has enough dark fruit and structure to hold up to a well-seasoned patty. It's the most functional pairing on the list and the reason Decoy exists in the first place.
The Bottom Line
Sidewinders is a great spot to watch a game and eat a burger — just don't come here for the wine. Order a local craft beer, save your wine curiosity for somewhere that deserves it.
South Jackson · Jackson Hole · Burgers, Bar & Grill
This is a short bar list that fits a burger bar: 10 pours, $9 to $15, no bottle prices posted. Order the $9 Ercole Barbera with a burger, or spend $13 on the Pradorey Tempranillo for something less expected. This unrated guide covers the posted by-the-glass list, not service, storage or markups, and the page is undated, so confirm what is pouring.
Teton Village · Jackson Hole · Pan-Asian small plates and contemporary bar fare
A short hotel-lounge list where every still wine is priced at 6 oz, 9 oz and the bottle. Start with the $19 Tentadora Malbec or the $15 Dr. Loosen Riesling by the 6 oz glass, and confirm today's prices because the page is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Moose · Jackson Hole · Western / American
A seven-wine list with one price for everything: $11 a glass, $25 a bottle. Order the Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc with the Pulled Pork Sandwich, and take bottles if there are three or more of you. This unrated guide covers the posted drinks selection, not service, storage or markups.
Downtown Jackson · Jackson Hole · Modern Mexican / Taqueria
A five-wine list sitting beside a tequila and mezcal menu the restaurant is proud of. If you want wine with dinner, the Los Vascos Cabernet at 10 | 36 is the lowest-priced pair and the Elouan Pinot Noir at 13 | 48 is the other red, but confirm what the two numbers mean and check current availability since the menu image was linked as June 2025. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Wilson / Westbank · Jackson Hole · Italian-American
A one-page list with an Italian-red group of 22 bottles and 14 glass entries, judged only on what is posted. Order the La Farra Prosecco at 8 | 32 with a pizza, or the 38 Diego Conterno Dolcetto for a bottle, and ask which number is the glass price. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Wilson · Jackson Hole · Japanese / Sushi
Start with the $16 Ca' Vittoria Prosecco, or the $17 Pascal Biotteau Anjou Blanc if you want a white by the glass. If you book the omakase, the restaurant says a wine or sake pairing is an additional $50 for four 3 oz pours. Confirm current availability and prices. This unrated guide covers the posted list, not service, storage or retail markups.
