Wingman Metrics
The room is loud, colorful, and genuinely fun — exactly what you want from a pan-Asian spot in the middle of a ski town. Then the wine list arrives and the energy flatlines. It reads like someone handed a restaurant manager a grocery store circular and said 'order these.'
Twenty-something wines anchored almost entirely in California, Washington State, and New Zealand, with no real attempt to reach beyond the obvious. You'll find Meiomi, Decoy, Kim Crawford, and 14 Hands — wines that show up on every mid-tier chain restaurant list from Bozeman to Boca Raton. There's no nod to Alsace, no Grüner Veltliner, no Riesling from Germany — wines that would actually sing with tikka masala or a spicy noodle bowl. The list isn't curated; it's populated.
Six to ten pours by the glass, which sounds reasonable until you realize it's the same familiar suspects: Kung Fu Girl Riesling, Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc, Meiomi Pinot Noir. No rotation, no seasonal swaps, nothing that suggests anyone is paying attention to what's in the glass. The pours are fine in isolation — just deeply uninspired for a kitchen this creative.
Kung Fu Girl Riesling (Charles Smith Wines, Washington) — $11/glass
At $11, it's the least offensive markup on the list and actually does the most work with the food — the off-dry stone fruit and bright acidity cut through spice better than anything else they're pouring.
Decoy by Duckhorn Cabernet Sauvignon (California)
It's the only bottle on the list with a markup under 200%, and Decoy punches above its price point — polished, fruit-forward, and a reliable pour if you insist on red and don't want to gamble on the rest of the list.
14 Hands Cabernet Sauvignon (Washington State)
A $10 retail bottle priced at $44 on the menu is a 340% markup on a wine that has no business being at that price anywhere. This is a gas station wine in a tuxedo it didn't earn.
Kung Fu Girl Riesling (Charles Smith Wines, Washington) + Tikka Masala Bowl
Off-dry Riesling and cream-based spice sauces are one of the most reliable combos in the book — the residual sugar tempers the heat while the acidity keeps the richness from going flat. It's the one moment this wine list accidentally gets it right.
The Bottom Line
Teton Tiger is a genuinely great place to eat pan-Asian food in Jackson Hole — but the wine list is a placeholder, not a program. Order a cocktail or a beer, or bring your own if corkage allows.
South Jackson · Jackson Hole · Burgers, Bar & Grill
This is a short bar list that fits a burger bar: 10 pours, $9 to $15, no bottle prices posted. Order the $9 Ercole Barbera with a burger, or spend $13 on the Pradorey Tempranillo for something less expected. This unrated guide covers the posted by-the-glass list, not service, storage or markups, and the page is undated, so confirm what is pouring.
Teton Village · Jackson Hole · Pan-Asian small plates and contemporary bar fare
A short hotel-lounge list where every still wine is priced at 6 oz, 9 oz and the bottle. Start with the $19 Tentadora Malbec or the $15 Dr. Loosen Riesling by the 6 oz glass, and confirm today's prices because the page is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Moose · Jackson Hole · Western / American
A seven-wine list with one price for everything: $11 a glass, $25 a bottle. Order the Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc with the Pulled Pork Sandwich, and take bottles if there are three or more of you. This unrated guide covers the posted drinks selection, not service, storage or markups.
Downtown Jackson · Jackson Hole · Modern Mexican / Taqueria
A five-wine list sitting beside a tequila and mezcal menu the restaurant is proud of. If you want wine with dinner, the Los Vascos Cabernet at 10 | 36 is the lowest-priced pair and the Elouan Pinot Noir at 13 | 48 is the other red, but confirm what the two numbers mean and check current availability since the menu image was linked as June 2025. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Wilson / Westbank · Jackson Hole · Italian-American
A one-page list with an Italian-red group of 22 bottles and 14 glass entries, judged only on what is posted. Order the La Farra Prosecco at 8 | 32 with a pizza, or the 38 Diego Conterno Dolcetto for a bottle, and ask which number is the glass price. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Wilson · Jackson Hole · Japanese / Sushi
Start with the $16 Ca' Vittoria Prosecco, or the $17 Pascal Biotteau Anjou Blanc if you want a white by the glass. If you book the omakase, the restaurant says a wine or sake pairing is an additional $50 for four 3 oz pours. Confirm current availability and prices. This unrated guide covers the posted list, not service, storage or retail markups.
Downtown · Aspen · Asian Fusion
Jing isn't a wine destination, but the list is smarter than the room gives it credit for — an Alsace and Austria-leaning selection that actually makes sense with the food is worth acknowledging. Just go in knowing the markups reflect the zip code, not the pour.

· Atlanta · Asian Fusion
Tenku Avenue gets the format right — all glass, no bottle minimums — but the list itself plays it too safe for a kitchen that presumably takes more risks than this. Go in knowing what you want, grab the Acrobat or the Blank Stare, and don't let anyone upsell you into the Belle Glos.

North Helena / Cedar Street corridor · Helena · Asian Fusion
Mustard Seed Helena isn't trying to be a wine destination, and it doesn't need to be — it's a solid neighborhood spot with a California-forward list that works with the food and won't wreck your bill. Send a friend here knowing they'll drink reasonably well, not remarkably well.
