First Impression
The wine list at SW Steakhouse lands on your table like a phonebook from another era — 1,800+ labels that span everything from Screaming Eagle to Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. This is the Wynn, so expectations are high, and the cellar delivers on depth even if your wallet will feel it.
Selection Deep Dive
The focus skews heavily toward Napa Valley cult cabs, blue-chip Burgundy, and first-growth Bordeaux — exactly what you'd expect at a high-roller steakhouse. You'll find Harlan Estate, Opus One, and Pétrus alongside serious verticals of top producers. The collection goes wide too, with strong Italian and Spanish sections that show someone actually curates this thing. Price points range from approachable $80 bottles to five-figure unicorns that probably sell once a year to someone celebrating a big win at the tables.
By the Glass
Twenty-plus glass pours include the usual suspects like Whispering Angel rosé and Trefethen Chardonnay, priced between $18-$60. The glass program plays it safe rather than adventurous — you won't find natural wines or emerging regions here, just reliable crowd-pleasers. Rotation seems minimal, with the same core lineup staying put rather than showcasing seasonal or rare pours.
Trefethen Chardonnay, Napa Valley — $68
Only 70% markup on a $40 retail bottle — practically a steal by Vegas steakhouse standards, and it's a classic Napa chard that actually pairs with food
Piper-Heidsieck Cuvée 1785 Brut
At $90, it's the only wine on the list with a reasonable 100% markup, and it's a solid grower Champagne that gets overshadowed by the flashier Moët and Veuve next to it
Caves d'Esclans Whispering Angel, Côtes de Provence
They're charging $68 for a $20 retail bottle of the most ubiquitous rosé in America — a 240% markup that's borderline offensive even for the Strip
Framingham Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough + Maine Lobster
Classic New Zealand citrus and minerality cuts through butter-poached lobster beautifully, and at $68 it's one of the more restrained markups on the glass list
🔥 The Bottom Line
SW Steakhouse earns its Rager badge on cellar depth alone — this is one of the most serious wine programs in Vegas, with proper storage, knowledgeable staff, and bottles you won't find anywhere else. But you'll pay Vegas prices: most markups sit between 150-250%, which stings even when you're expecting it.
