Wingman Metrics
You walk into the Mangy Moose and the vibe hits first — mounted antlers, ski boots clanking on wood floors, everyone still half in their gear. The wine list follows the same logic: nothing surprising, nothing offensive, just the familiar names you've seen a hundred times at a hundred mountain bars. It's a crowd-pleaser list built for a crowd-pleasing room.
The list runs 40–70 bottles deep, leaning heavily on California and the Pacific Northwest, which is exactly what you'd expect from a Jackson Hole après-ski institution. You'll find the usual suspects — Meiomi, The Prisoner, Kim Crawford — producers who know how to make something crowd-friendly and move serious volume. There's no real adventurousness here: no Willamette Valley single-vineyard Pinot, no Walla Walla Syrah, no skin-contact anything. The list does its job without ever making you feel like the restaurant thought hard about it.
Eight to twelve pours by the glass, which is a decent spread for a saloon-style spot at 6,000 feet. Expect the usual rotation of Chardonnay, Cab, Pinot Noir, and a Sauvignon Blanc to round things out — solid enough for a post-run pour but don't expect anything that'll make you put your phone down. The glass program feels static, with no real rotation or seasonal energy behind it.
Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc — $12
It's not groundbreaking, but Kim Crawford is reliably crisp and clean — exactly what you want after a morning on the mountain. At a reasonable pour price, it's the most honest transaction on the list.
Meiomi Pinot Noir
Yes, it's everywhere. Yes, it's commercial. But at a loud saloon with a plate of prime rib in front of you, Meiomi's soft, fruit-forward style actually makes sense — and most people dismiss it too fast. Order it cold and don't apologize.
The Prisoner Red Blend
The Prisoner trades on its name and charges you for it. At Mangy Moose prices, you're paying a steep markup on a bottle that's already overpriced at retail. The bang-for-buck just isn't there when you're splitting it at a ski bar.
Meiomi Pinot Noir + Prime Rib
Prime rib has enough richness to need something with weight, but the Mangy Moose isn't the place to open a Barolo. Meiomi's jammy dark fruit and soft tannins hug the beef without fighting it — it's an easy call that actually works.
The Bottom Line
The Mangy Moose is a great place to eat and drink after a hard day on the slopes — just don't come expecting a wine revelation. The list is safe, the prices reflect the zip code, and that's fine: sometimes you just need a glass of Pinot and a plate of prime rib, and this place delivers exactly that.
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.
