Wingman Metrics
You're in Jackson Hole, surrounded by fleece vests and ski stories, and then the wine list lands on the table like a mic drop. Three to five hundred bottles, a sommelier who actually works the floor, and the kind of list that makes you reconsider your dinner budget entirely. This is not what you expect from a mountain town grill, and that's exactly the point.
The list leans hard into California and Oregon — Kistler Chardonnay and Domaine Drouhin Oregon Pinot Noir anchor the domestic side with real credibility, not just crowd-pleasing labels. France and Burgundy get serious treatment too, which means you're not just looking at Napa blockbusters with a couple of token Bordeaux thrown in for show. The trophy wine presence is real — Opus One and Caymus Special Selection are here for the big spenders and the expense account crowd — but the depth beneath those headline bottles is what separates Snake River Grill from a steakhouse wine wall. Gaps exist, particularly in Southern Hemisphere and natural wine territory, but for old-world-meets-West-Coast depth, this list delivers.
Twenty to thirty pours by the glass is genuinely impressive for a restaurant at this altitude — both literally and figuratively. The program clearly prioritizes quality over quantity, and with a sommelier on staff you can reasonably expect the glass pours to rotate with intention rather than just sitting open until they oxidize. We'd ask the floor staff what's been opened recently; they'll know.
Domaine Drouhin Oregon Pinot Noir — null
Domaine Drouhin is one of the most consistent and honestly priced Pinot Noir producers in Oregon — Burgundian winemaking sensibility without the Burgundy markup. Against a menu full of elk and duck, this is the move. We can't confirm the exact bottle price, but it's the value anchor on a list that trends expensive.
Kistler Chardonnay
Most tables at a grill like this go straight to the reds, and Kistler gets overlooked as a result. That's a mistake. Kistler makes some of California's most compelling Chardonnay — structured, mineral-driven, not the butterscotch bomb people assume — and it holds up against the wood-fired richness of this kitchen better than you'd think.
Caymus Vineyards Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignon
Caymus Special Selection is a fine wine, but it's also one of the most recognizable and most marked-up bottles in the American restaurant industry. You're paying a premium for the name recognition here, and that money could take you somewhere far more interesting on a list this deep. Let someone else order it.
Domaine Drouhin Oregon Pinot Noir + Elk Chop
Elk is leaner and more mineral than beef, and it needs a wine with enough red fruit to complement the gaminess without overwhelming it. Drouhin's Pinot has the structure and the earthy backbone to go toe-to-toe with elk without either one winning — that's the sweet spot.
The Bottom Line
Snake River Grill punches well above its weight class for a mountain resort town, with a list deep enough to reward serious exploration and a sommelier who can actually help you navigate it. The markups are resort-level steep, so go in with eyes open — but if you're eating elk chops by a wood-burning fire in Wyoming, you're probably not here to pinch pennies.
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.
· Round Rock · New American
Whiskey Cake Round Rock isn't a wine destination, but it's not trying to be — the all-by-the-glass format keeps things approachable, the pricing is honest, and there are a couple of genuinely good pours hiding in a short list. If wine is your priority tonight, look elsewhere; if you're here for the vibe and want something decent in your glass, Chehalem and Altocedro have you covered.

· Columbia · New American
Motor Supply Co. Bistro appears to put its energy into the kitchen, and that may be the right call — but three wines is not a wine program. Until this list gets a serious rethink, order a cocktail or call ahead to ask about corkage.

THREE isn't trying to be a wine destination, and the list makes that abundantly clear. If you're here for cocktails or the bar scene, you're probably in the right place — but if wine matters to you even a little, this four-item lineup isn't going to do much for you. Order the House Champagne at $5, accept the situation for what it is, and move on.
