Walking into a converted bank building sets expectations high, and the wine list mostly delivers — it's focused, Italian-leaning, and priced like someone actually wants you to order a second bottle. Nothing here is going to blow your mind, but nothing is going to insult you either.
The list runs 60-100 bottles with a clear Italian spine, which makes sense given the kitchen's direction. You're getting respectable regional coverage — sparkling, white, red — without a lot of deep-cut producer geekery. The bottle range of $40–$150 keeps things accessible without feeling like a budget chain, and the markup discipline is refreshingly honest for a downtown OKC dining room. What's missing is a reason to linger on the list — no single-vineyard surprises, no esoteric grapes to chase down.
Ten to sixteen pours by the glass is a solid count, running $12–$18 a pop, and the Italian anchors like Lambrusco and Prosecco give the program some personality. The glass program doesn't rotate aggressively, so don't expect anything seasonal or off-the-wall, but the baseline quality is there for a casual dinner drink.
Lambrusco, Cleto Chiarli Enrico Cialdini NV — $15
At $15 a glass for a proper Lambrusco from one of the category's legitimate producers, this is the move. Retail sits around $18 for the bottle, so the markup is almost laughably fair. Order it with the handmade pasta and don't second-guess yourself.
Lambrusco, Cleto Chiarli Enrico Cialdini NV
Most people skip Lambrusco entirely because they think fizzy red wine is a gimmick. Cleto Chiarli has been making this stuff seriously for over 150 years — it's dry, earthy, and cuts through rich pasta sauces better than half the Chiantis on the list. This is the most interesting pour on the menu and it's probably the least ordered.
Champagne, Pommery Pop NV
At $45 a glass, the Pommery Pop is charming in concept — it's the single-serve mini bottle — but you're paying a premium for the novelty packaging, not the wine. There are better ways to spend $45 at this table.
Lambrusco, Cleto Chiarli Enrico Cialdini NV + Handmade Pasta
The Lambrusco's dry fizz and dark fruit cut straight through rich, meaty pasta sauces without overpowering the dish. It's the kind of pairing that feels accidental until you realize Emilia-Romagna has been doing exactly this for centuries.
The Bottom Line
Tellers doesn't reinvent the wine list, but it doesn't need to — fair prices, Italian focus, and a genuinely good Lambrusco pour make it one of the more honest wine experiences in downtown OKC. Send a friend here and point them straight to the Cleto Chiarli.
· Oklahoma City · Restaurant
Grey Sweater is doing something genuinely unusual for Oklahoma City — a tight, grower-Champagne-anchored list that rewards the curious and gently punishes the lazy. The markups aren't cheap, but the selection is real, and that counts for a lot when the alternative is another steak house wine list.

Edmond (North Metro) · Oklahoma City · Upscale American Fine Dining
Signature Grill is a reliable date-night spot where the wine list won't embarrass you, but it won't excite you either. Stick to Jordan, skip the Caymus markup, and let the kitchen do the heavy lifting.

Edmond (North Metro) · Oklahoma City · Steakhouse
Boulevard Steakhouse is a reliable Edmond institution that takes its wine seriously enough to stock recognizable names at steakhouse-appropriate prices, but not seriously enough to challenge you. Send a friend here if they want a comfortable, familiar experience — just tell them to skip the Caymus and order the Jordan.

Automobile Alley · Oklahoma City · Steakhouse
Broadway 10 is a reliable wine stop if California Cab is your comfort zone — the list is curated for the chophouse crowd and it delivers on that promise. Just don't expect to discover anything new, and keep an eye on that markup.

Uptown / Midtown-NW 23rd · Oklahoma City · Southwestern, New American
Cheever's is a genuinely good neighborhood restaurant that treats its wine list as a supporting player, not a headliner — and the steep markups mean you're paying a premium for the convenience of recognizable labels. Come for the food and the vibe; if you drink wine, stick to one glass and let the kitchen do the heavy lifting.

· Laredo · Italian
Johnny Carino's Laredo isn't trying to be a wine destination, and the list makes that abundantly clear. If you're here, go on a Sunday or Wednesday, grab that half-price Albertoni, and keep your expectations parked firmly at 'Italian chain in Laredo.'

· Toledo · Italian
Rosie's is doing what a neighborhood Italian restaurant should do with its wine list — keeping prices honest, leaning into Italian varietals, and giving you enough by-the-glass options that everyone at the table finds something. It's not pushing any boundaries, but it's not trying to either, and that's perfectly fine.

North Italia Gilbert is a chain that does the bare minimum of interesting things — and sometimes that's exactly what you need on a Tuesday in Gilbert. The Italian regional whites are the real reason to open this list; everything else is serviceable.
