Subito's posted wine list runs from Italian reds to Napa Cabernet, with Ohio wines and a kosher section mixed in. The glass pages label every pour by size, with the bottle price beside it. The list on the restaurant's Menus page carries no printed date, so confirm what is available. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Italian whites and reds get their own sections. Reds include Casanuova della Cerbie Brunello di Montalcino (2019, 150), Barolo from GD Vajra "Albe" (2020, 130) and Paolo Scavino (2020, 140), Antinori Tignanello (2021, 450, printed "Tiganello") and Sassicaia (2021, 525). California appears in the Cabernet section with Silver Oak Alexander Valley (2020, 250) and Frog's Leap Rutherford (2020, 200), and in Chardonnay with Far Niente (2023, 150) and Rombauer (2022, 160). Two wines are from Ohio: the Seconda Volta "Carlotta" red blend, listed as Cincinnati, Ohio (43), and the Seconda Volta "Laurentia" Vidal Grigio from the Ohio River Valley (50). The list also has kosher wines and non-alcoholic bottles.
Glass pours are labeled by size, with the bottle price beside them: for example, Scarpetta Pinot Grigio is posted as 6oz 12, 9oz 18 and Bottle 46. Among the alcoholic wines, 6oz pours run from 12 to 25, the top price being Beaulieu Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon. Moet & Chandon Imperial is posted as 187ml 40 and 750mL 135. Non-alcoholic options include Lyre's sparkling (6oz 12) and Waterbrook Clean Chardonnay (6oz 10).
The Bottom Line
A broad Italian-and-Napa list, with every glass pour labeled by size. Start with the Santa Cristina Cabernet Sauvignon (6oz 12) or the Ohio-made Carlotta red blend (43), and confirm what is pouring, since the list carries no date.

Montgomery · Cincinnati · American
A winery-restaurant list where nearly every wine is posted with a glass and a bottle price, from $9.50 to $25.00 a glass. Start with the Cooper's Hawk Lux Cabernet Sauvignon, which the menu lists beside the red wine braised short ribs, or the Cooper's Hawk Red at $10.75 a glass, and try the CHMX from Baja, Mexico on a weekday at the $8 Wine O'Clock price. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups, so confirm availability.
Covington · Cincinnati · Farm-to-Table Bistro
A bistro wine list with a compact glass tab and a regional bottle tab that runs from 42 to 310. Start with the Conquilla cava or the Voliero sangiovese by the glass, or the Thymiopoulos xinomavro at $50 if you want a bottle, and confirm prices because the menu is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted drinks list, not service, storage or markups.
Downtown · Cincinnati · Wood-Fired American
A French-led bottle list with a glass page that starts at $17 and a Coravin page for smaller pours. Order the Domaine Brun-Avril Côtes-du-Rhône at $20 a glass, or try the Château de Plaisance Anjou Blanc by the pour, and confirm vintages since the book says they are subject to change. This unrated guide covers the posted drinks selection, not service, storage or markups.
Newport · Cincinnati · Farm-to-table (Italian, French, American)
A tasting-menu room with a wine book that runs from Burgundy to Tuscany and a short, specific beverage sheet. Start with the $15 Delalle sparkling Chenin Blanc, or look at the $48 Rocca del Principe Fiano if you want a bottle, and confirm what is available since neither list is dated. This unrated guide covers the posted drinks lists, not service, storage or markups.
Downtown · Cincinnati · Rooftop Bar & Restaurant
A short, familiar list of 16 wines, from 12 | 44 for Cava and Rioja up to 18 | 68 for a Sonoma red blend. Order the Cune Crianza Rioja with a steak or the Revel OTR Pinot Gris if you want something less obvious, and ask which price is the glass because the menu does not say. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Price Hill · Cincinnati · Italian
A compact two-page list sorted by the dishes it suits, with 18 pours from $9 to $14. Start with the $11 Gavi by the glass, or order the $90 Damilano Barolo with the Veal Saltimboca, and confirm what is available. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.

La Tavola deserves a real wine list — the food and the room both demand one. Right now, five bottles with no reds and no whites is a disservice to a kitchen that's clearly cooking at a higher level than the wine program suggests. Order the Ca' Del Bosco if you're drinking wine, and hope they overhaul this list before your next visit.

Mangia Qui is a genuinely appealing spot — the food, the room, and the service cadence all point toward a place that takes the dining experience seriously. The Italian wine focus is the right instinct for this kitchen, and duck confit with a solid Tuscan red is exactly what this kind of room should be delivering. We just don't have enough confirmed wine list detail yet to tell you whether to come for the bottle or stick to the food. Worth a visit — ask your server what's good on the wine list and see what happens.

Excelsior Inn Ristorante has the bones of a solid wine destination — Italian-focused list, upscale setting, food that deserves a proper bottle — but we can't fully vouch for it until the wine program is better documented. If you're heading there for a special occasion, ask your server what's drinking well from the Italian side and what they're pouring locally from Oregon; a restaurant this thoughtful about atmosphere usually has at least one or two right answers.
