Sook DC's wine list, linked from its menu page as Cocktails + Wine, covers 14 wines under 'wine by the glass', three dessert wines in 3 oz pours and 19 bottles. Lebanon, Georgia, Austria and South Africa all show up. The list is undated, so confirm what's open before you go.
The 19 bottles split into two sparkling, six white, four skin contact and seven red, and run from $50 to $140. Four of the 33 wines are Lebanese, including Mersel 'Phoenix' Merwah 2023 at $60 and Go There Sauvignon/Merwah from the Bekaa Valley at $50. Georgia has Baia's Tsolikouri at $63 and Go There Krakhuna at $70. The three Radikon bottles from Friuli, Sivi Pinot 2023, Slatnik and Rosso, are the top price at $140. For something closer to home, Big Cork Vineyards Cabernet Franc 2022 from Maryland is $87.
The 14 glass wines are posted with two prices, such as $16|$70, and the list doesn't label them. The first price runs $15 for Monemvasia 'Jackal' Limniona to $20 for the 'Exception' Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc, and the second runs $66 to $88. Skin contact has four wines, including Teliani Valley 'Glekhuri' Kisi at $18|$79 and Mersel 'Jaffa Crush' Merwah/Muscat at $17|$75. The list also posts $25 pours in four named groups: Somm's Favorites, Bubbles - 3 Styles, Blanc Baddie and Red-y or Not.
The Bottom Line
A list of 14 glass wines and 19 bottles with Lebanese and Georgian entries, with the glass section posted at $15 to $20 and bottles from $50 to $140. Start with a glass of the Teliani Valley Kisi, and order the $50 Go There Sauvignon/Merwah if you want a bottle. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups, and the list is undated, so confirm prices.
· Washington · Mediterranean
Zaytinya's wine list is one of the more focused and honest Greek programs you'll find at a mid-to-high scale restaurant in D.C. The by-the-glass selection is wide, the pricing doesn't insult you, and the Greek variety depth is genuinely impressive. If you've been waiting for a reason to finally figure out what Xinomavro tastes like, this is your spot.

· Washington · Brazilian Steakhouse
Fogo de Chão's wine list is exactly what a national Brazilian steakhouse chain's wine list looks like: functional, familiar, and priced for margin rather than your benefit. The by-the-glass count is impressive on paper, but most of the options are labels you've seen at your grocery store for a fraction of what they're charging here. If you're coming for the meat — and you should be — stick to the Catena Malbec and enjoy the show.

Washington · Washington · Steak House
A 20-wine by-the-glass list with every pour between $14 and $30, split across four sparkling, six white, two rosé and eight red. With a steak, start with the $26 Clos Duval Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon or the $22 Monte Antico Supremus; for the cheapest glass, take the $14 Dr. Loosen Riesling. Pour sizes aren't posted and the page is undated, so confirm today's wines. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Downtown DC · Washington · Steakhouse
A steakhouse beverage menu with 30 wines by the glass and a bottle list that is mostly California, with some France, Italy and Portugal. Start with the $9/glass happy hour Bonanza Cabernet if you arrive in the window, or the Eroica Riesling, the only Riesling on the glass list, and ask for prices because regular wine prices aren't posted. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Georgetown · Washington · Seafood, Steakhouse
An unpriced list that is easier to read for what it offers than for what it costs. If you want Bordeaux, ask for the 2020 Margaux de Brane Cantenac, or look at the Brunello di Montalcino in Sommelier's Selections, and get the price before you commit. This unrated guide covers the posted Beverage Menu, not service, storage or markups.
Washington · Washington · Latin, Vegetarian
A wide-ranging list with 14 wines by the glass from $17 to $95 and a bottle book that runs from $60 to $1,275. Start with the $17 Eichinger Grüner Veltliner or the $20 Pêcheur Trousseau, and ask for the Natural Wines section if you want something low-intervention. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
