Wingman Metrics
You walk into Superior's and the piano is playing, the room smells like butter and dry-aged beef, and the wine list lands on your table with the satisfying thud of something that was taken seriously. At a glance, this is a legitimately ambitious wine program for Shreveport — 150-plus bottles, a clear love of Napa, and evidence of actual wine dinner events on the calendar.
The list leans hard into California, and that's not a criticism when you're eating a $78 ribeye under a chandelier. Producers like PlumpJack and CADE anchor the Napa selections with real credibility — these aren't just name-brand fillers. The surprise is a Royal Tokaji 5 Puttonyos lurking on the list, which tells you someone here has range and isn't afraid to go off-script. Orin Swift appearances via wine dinner events suggest the program rotates and evolves, which is a good sign. Gaps in broader European coverage keep this from reaching true destination-list status.
Estimated 12-20 pours by the glass is solid for a steakhouse of this format, and with a list anchored by PlumpJack and CADE, there's a reasonable chance the glass program has some genuine quality on offer — not just house pours you forget by the time the check arrives. We'd push staff on what's currently available by the glass before committing to a bottle.
PlumpJack Winery Merlot 2022 Napa Valley — Half price on Mondays
PlumpJack Merlot at half price on a Monday is the kind of deal that makes a $50+ bottle feel like a Tuesday night decision. PlumpJack produces serious Napa Merlot — rich, structured, not the soft generic stuff — and getting it at half off with a steak in front of you is genuinely good value in an otherwise steep list.
Royal Tokaji 5 Puttonyos
Most people at a steakhouse aren't thinking about Hungarian dessert wine, and that's exactly why you should order it. A 5 Puttonyos from Royal Tokaji is concentrated, complex, and acidic enough to cut through richness — sip it after the meal and you'll understand why this stuff has been on royal tables for centuries. It's the most interesting thing on this list and most tables will walk right past it.
CADE Winery Sauvignon Blanc 2022 Napa Valley
CADE makes fine wine, but Napa Sauvignon Blanc at steakhouse markup is a tough sell when you're surrounded by red meat and piano music. You're paying a premium for a style of wine that doesn't need to be from Napa Valley, and the markup here likely makes it an even harder value case. Spend those dollars on the Merlot.
PlumpJack Winery Chardonnay 2022 Napa Valley + Lobster tail or butter-finished seafood starter
PlumpJack Chardonnay is the kind of full-bodied, oak-kissed Napa white that was made for rich seafood in a room like this. It doesn't fight the butter — it joins the party. If the menu has a lobster tail or any butter-sauced seafood option, this is the move before you commit to a red with your steak.
Monday — Every Monday from 5–10 PM, all bottles of wine are half price. This is not a drill. Plan accordingly.
✔️ The Bottom Line
Superior's is doing real work with its wine program by Shreveport standards — a serious list, legitimate producers, and a half-price Monday that should be on your weekly calendar. The markup on a regular night stings, but this is the kind of place that earns the splurge when the piano's playing and the steak is right.
Line Avenue / South Highlands · Shreveport · Tex-Mex
Superior Grill is the Wild Card precisely because nobody expects a Tex-Mex place on Line Avenue to stock Cakebread and Merry Edwards alongside a $6 house pour — but here we are. Tuesday half-price wine at the bar is one of the better deals in Shreveport, full stop.

Line Avenue / East Shreveport · Shreveport · Mediterranean / New American
Bella Fresca is doing more with five bottles than most Shreveport spots do with fifty, but a wine program this thin can't fully carry a chef's table concept. Come for the food, order the Languedoc, and hope they expand the list soon.

South Highlands · Shreveport · French Bistro
Fat Calf Brasserie is punching well above Shreveport's wine expectations — a legitimately thoughtful list in a city where most restaurants mail it in. Yes, send a friend here for wine, especially if they're ordering steak or mussels.

Line Avenue / East Shreveport · Shreveport · Wine Bar / Mediterranean
Bella Fresca is doing something that shouldn't work in Shreveport but quietly does — a focused, globally curious wine list that leans Oregon and Southern France instead of taking the easy path. It's not perfect, but it's the kind of place you send a friend when they insist they can't find good wine in Louisiana.

South Highlands / Line Avenue · Shreveport · Modern Mexican, tacos and casual Latin fusion
Ki' Mexico is a Wild Card in the best possible way — a lively taco spot that quietly stocks a wine list built with actual taste. If you're in Shreveport and want something other than a frozen margarita, this is your move.
