First Impression
The wine list at River Concourse reads like it was ordered from a corporate catalog in 2018 and nobody's looked at it since. This is resort wine programming at its most forgettable—safe brands at inflated prices for guests who are focused on their golf game, not their glass.
Selection Deep Dive
The selection leans heavily on household names that require zero explanation: your Kendall-Jacksons, your Ruffinos, your La Croix Rosés. California dominates with predictable Napa Cabs in the $80-120 range that you could find for $35 at Total Wine. There's a token Malbec, a Pinot Grigio, and maybe a Sancerre if you're lucky, but nothing that suggests anyone with wine knowledge had a hand in building this list. It's the kind of selection designed to offend nobody and excite nobody.
By the Glass
By-the-glass pours follow the same playbook: six or seven options that cover the basics without taking any risks. Expect a buttery Chardonnay, a jammy Cab, and a bone-dry Pinot Grigio, all poured into generic stemware. Rotation is theoretical at best—these bottles are staples that never leave the lineup. Prices hover around $12-16 per glass, which feels steep when you realize you're drinking the same wines they serve at airport bars.
J. Lohr Seven Oaks Cabernet Sauvignon — $48
Reliable Paso Robles Cab that's actually drinkable, though still marked up 3x retail
Imagery Malbec
If they stock it, this is a solid expression from a decent California producer that most people skip for Argentina
Ruffino Chianti
Mass-market Italian at $45+ when you can buy it at Kroger for $12—this is the resort tax in action
Hess Select Monterey Chardonnay + Grilled Shrimp
Coastal Chard with enough acid to cut through butter sauce without competing with the seafood
❌ The Bottom Line
This is wine for people who aren't thinking about wine—you're here for the resort amenities and the Savannah River views. If wine matters to you, bring a bottle and pray they have corkage, or head back across the river to the historic district where actual wine programs exist.
