St. Anselm posts a 56-page wine list PDF dated 10/03/2026 on each page, a separate beverage PDF dated 10/05/26, and describes the program as "an exceptional collection of Madeira." The wine book opens with Madeira by the ounce, then half bottles, large formats, sparkling, Champagne, white and red. The glass list sits in the beverage PDF.
Madeira is grouped Dry, Semi-Dry, Semi-Sweet and Sweet, from Broadbent 'Reserve' 5yr at 4 per ounce to D'Oliveiras Malvasia 1907 at 214 per ounce, and the Dry group runs from Blandy's Sercial 10yr at 5 to D'Oliveiras Sercial 1928 at 122, with flights such as 'Exploration of 4 Styles' at $25 for 1 oz of each. The half-bottle section (375ML) says it has "over 20 more options," including Terre del Barolo 2020 at 50 and Gaja Barbaresco 2020 at 272. Southern Rhône reds include Domaine Gassier Côtes du Rhône 2023 at 50 and Domaine Porte Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2022 at 165. Bottle prices are bare numbers; check the bottle size before you order.
The beverage PDF has three glass formats. Wines by the Glass include Chardonnay (Camp, North Coast 2024) at $15, Albariño (Pedralonga, Rías Baixas 2025) at $16, Cabernet Franc (Plouzeau, Chinon 2024) at $18 and Pinot Noir (Starr/Brooks, Willamette 2024) at $21. Wines on Tap, labeled "by the glass, 500mL and 1L," include a Malbec from Altos Las Hormigas at $17, $52 and $104. Sommelier Selections are priced for 1 oz, 2.5 oz and 5 oz, such as Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2023 at $10, $25 and $50. Confirm what is pouring.

The Bottom Line
Try the Blandy's 10yr Sercial Madeira at $5 per ounce, or the $25 four-style flight, before you commit to a bottle. For bigger tables, the Altos Las Hormigas Malbec on tap is $52 for 500mL. Confirm availability and prices, since the lists are dated October 2026. This unrated guide covers the posted wine lists, not service, storage or markups.

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.

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.
Downtown Roswell · Roswell · American
Canton St. Social is a solid neighborhood restaurant in historic downtown Roswell, and the wine program appears to be built for exactly that — supporting a good night out without overcomplicating things. We don't have enough sourced wine data to tell you what to order, which means your best move is to ask your server what's pouring well that night and go from there. Worth a visit for the food and atmosphere; the wine list is a work in progress as far as our research goes.

The Boynton is a great neighborhood spot for a cold beer, a burger, and a game — and that's exactly what it should be. The wine program is along for the ride, not driving the car. If wine matters to you tonight, this isn't your destination; if you're here for the food and the vibe, order a beer and enjoy it.

Downtown Atlanta · Atlanta · American
Hard Rock Cafe Atlanta's wine list is a Lazy List by every measure — grocery store brands, steep markups, no specials, and a rotating staff with little incentive to know what's in the glass. If you're here for the memorabilia and the atmosphere, lean into a cocktail or a beer. If wine is non-negotiable, the Chateau Ste. Michelle Riesling or Columbia Crest Cab will get you through the night without regret.
