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.
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.
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.

Alexxa's is a Strip restaurant doing Strip things — great location, recognizable bottles, pricing that reflects the real estate. If you're here for fountain views and a glass of Cakebread, you'll be genuinely happy; if you're hunting for value or adventure, look elsewhere.

LPM is a legitimate wine destination by Las Vegas Strip standards — the Burgundy-forward list has real bones, sommelier Karla Poeschel keeps it credible, and a newly minted Wine Spectator Award of Excellence confirms this isn't just hotel filler. Markups are what they are in this zip code, but the quality is there if you spend wisely.

La Strega is doing something genuinely unusual for a Las Vegas neighborhood Italian: serving serious wine at prices that don't require an expense account, backed by a sommelier who knows what she's doing. Tuesday half-price wine night is not a gimmick — it's a reason to rearrange your week.

Caramella is a better wine stop than its lounge-y Strip pedigree would suggest — the Italian selections alone make it worth a serious look. The Thursday half-price night is the real unlock; that's when this list goes from steep to genuinely exciting.

é is a Wild Card in the most literal sense — a nine-seat secret room inside a casino that takes Spanish wine more seriously than most dedicated wine bars. If you're eating here, you're already spending money; lean into the list and let Chris So point you somewhere unexpected.

Wakuda isn't a wine destination in the way a dedicated wine bar is, but it's doing something genuinely interesting — pairing a focused, high-quality California-and-Burgundy list with Japanese cuisine that actually rewards that combination. If you're eating here, drink the wine; Luis Guillen knows what he's doing.

I-35 / North Creek · Laredo · Steakhouse
Outback Laredo's wine program is a national chain doing national chain things — predictable, overpriced relative to quality, and staffed by people who aren't expected to know anything about what they're pouring. Come for the Bloomin' Onion, stick to a cocktail, and save the wine order for somewhere that cares.

Logan's Roadhouse is not a wine destination — it's a steakhouse chain where wine clearly wasn't part of the concept. Order a beer, order a cocktail, and save the bottle for a restaurant that's actually trying.
