Wingman Metrics
The wine list at Standard and Score is exactly what it promises to be: straightforward, approachable, and built for people who want a decent glass alongside their tavern food without having to think too hard. Fifteen bottles, fifteen by-the-glass options — no guessing, no gatekeeping. It's the kind of list a gastropub should have, and they've executed it without embarrassing themselves.
The list covers the expected bases — California Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Malbec, Cab, Pinot Noir — with a few smart detours into Spain via a Bercero Crianza Tempranillo and a Shatter Grenache from the Roussillon. There's even a Chateau Suau Rouge from Bordeaux that feels a little out of place next to the Joel Gott, but in the best possible way. The Antinori Santa Cristina label appears twice (Pinot Grigio and a red), which is either efficient or lazy depending on your mood, but Antinori's name on a tavern list at $40 isn't something to complain about. Gaps are obvious — no domestic Pinot Gris, no Riesling, nothing from the Southern Hemisphere beyond the Crowded House Sauv Blanc and the Crios Malbec — but for Woodstock, Georgia, this is a respectable showing.
Every bottle on the list is available by the glass, which is genuinely useful and not something every gastropub bothers with. Pours run $12–$14, landing in a range that feels honest given the bottle prices. There's no rotating BTG program to speak of — what's on the list is what you get — but the selection is wide enough that you're not stuck choosing between two Chardonnays and a mystery Merlot.
The Bottom Line
Standard and Score isn't trying to be a wine destination, and that's fine — it's a tavern that takes its wine list seriously enough to include a Bordeaux rouge and a Roussillon Grenache alongside the crowd-pleasing California staples. Pricing is fair across the board, and the full BTG availability makes it easy to explore without committing to a bottle. If you're eating in Woodstock and want a solid glass without a lecture, this is your spot.

· Woodstock · Italian
Vingenzo's is a genuinely Italian-focused wine list in a market where that's not a given, and the regional breadth from Friuli to Puglia shows some real commitment. The markup and limited program depth hold it back from being a wine destination, but if you're here for the Gnocchi al Gorgonzola or the Pork Shank, there's enough on the list to make a smart, food-friendly choice. We'd call it a reliable neighborhood anchor — just don't expect to geek out.

If you're coming to Prime 120 for wine with dinner, what's documented here won't get you there — there's no evidence of a table wine program beyond four dessert pours. The dessert wine selection is actually thoughtful in its own narrow lane, and the Petit Guiraud Sauternes is a legitimate find at $15/glass. But a steakhouse without a documented Cabernet or red wine program is a wine list that isn't trying, and we can't recommend Prime 120 as a wine destination until there's more to work with.

Rootstock is the wine list that Woodstock doesn't know it deserves. A $40 price ceiling on 138 labels — including Chave, Breton, and Cucco Barolo — is the kind of value proposition that should have people driving up from Atlanta. It earns the Wild Card badge because the context makes it genuinely surprising; if this list showed up in Midtown, it would still be good. Out here, it's remarkable.

TENKU's wine list is the definition of reliable — it's not trying to be a wine destination, but it's making a real effort for a suburban sushi spot. The by-the-glass selection gives you enough to work with, the rosé options are a smart call for the food, and the glass pricing is fair. Just steer clear of the big Cabernet bottles if you're watching your wallet, and don't expect the list to surprise you.

Century House Tavern is a genuinely appealing spot — good food, great vibe, solid casual-upscale energy for Woodstock. The wine program, though, remains a bit of a mystery to us. We'd head here for the shrimp and grits and the garden patio without hesitation, but we'd need a lot more sourced detail on the wine list before we could send you here specifically for the bottle.

· Woodstock · Italian
Tuscany Italian in Woodstock isn't trying to reinvent the wheel, and that's fine — the Italian selections are legitimate, the glass pour count is genuinely impressive, and the pricing is fair without being exciting. If you're looking for a deep cellar or a rotating seasonal program, keep driving; if you want a solid glass of Chianti with your pasta without any drama, this gets the job done.

Blue Moon Brewery & Grill is a beer bar first, second, and third — the wine list exists so your friend who doesn't drink beer doesn't feel stranded. If that's the situation, the Cava at $9 or the Elouan Rosé at $10 are perfectly fine. But if wine is the reason you're going out, go somewhere else.

Buckhead · Atlanta · Gastropub/Tavern
Black Bear Tavern's wine program is honest about what it is: a short, affordable list built for people who want a glass of something familiar without thinking about it. The prices are fair — $8–$10 a glass and $30–$35 a bottle is refreshingly un-gouged for a Buckhead spot — but the selection has zero ambition. If you're here for the bar atmosphere and a burger, pour the Dona Paula Malbec or the Ste. Michelle Riesling and call it a night.

· Marietta · Gastropub/Tavern
Two Birds Taphouse isn't a wine destination, but it's not trying to be — and within that honest scope, the list holds up better than you'd expect from a Marietta taphouse. The markups are steep on the high end and the list won't evolve much, but the Tempranillo Blanco and Vinho Verde give wine-curious drinkers something real to work with. If you're here for the beer and your friend wants wine, they won't suffer.
