Del Frisco's Grille

Cherry Creek · Cherry Creek · Restaurant

The Lazy List

This wine program, as evidenced, is built around a brand-partnership dinner rather than a thoughtful everyday list — and it shows. Six recognizable California labels do not a wine destination make. If you're heading to Cherry Creek for a serious bottle, there are better options; here, the cocktail menu might be your friend.

Fogo de Chão

· Lone Tree · Brazilian Steakhouse

The Reliable

Fogo de Chão Lone Tree isn't a wine destination, but the sheer volume of by-the-glass options — anchored by solid South American pours — means you won't be stuck nursing something you hate. Stick to the Malbec tier, grab the Garzón Albariño if you're curious, and let the gaucho with the picanha worry about the rest.

Shiras Winery and Wine Bar

· Grand Junction · Urban Winery / Wine Bar

The Wild Card

Shiras is the kind of wine bar that doesn't exist in enough mid-sized American cities: a local producer pouring its own bottles at prices that don't require a second mortgage. The all-house list is a constraint, not a flaw, and the range from Chenin Blanc to Old Vine Zin shows real range. If you're passing through Grand Junction and want to understand what Western Colorado wine actually tastes like, this is the stop.

Capitol Public House

· Vail · Gastropub

The Reliable
🍷Half-Price Wednesdays

Here's the one concrete reason to pay attention to Capitol Public House's wine program: Wednesday half-price bottles. That single policy can turn an unremarkable list into a genuinely good deal. If you're a local in Eagle or passing through on a Wednesday, plan accordingly — even a middle-of-the-road bottle at half price is worth the stop. For everything else, manage expectations and let the whiskey bar do the talking.

Barriosocial

· Vail · Latin-inspired small plates

The Wild Card

Barriosocial is doing something genuinely unexpected in Vail: a wine list that reflects the food's Iberian DNA instead of defaulting to crowd-pleasing New World reds and overpriced Champagne by the bottle. The by-the-glass program alone — 20 options, fair pricing, real producers — is worth the visit. If you're eating in the mountains and actually care what's in your glass, this is the room.

The Peppertree

Pleasant Valley · Colorado Springs · Steakhouse

Not rated

A compact, fully priced list of 16 wines with a glass and a bottle price printed for every wine. Start with the Angeline Cabernet at $10 a glass for a low-cost red, or the L' Ecole Merlot at $17 if you want the Washington bottle, and confirm prices since the page is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.

Carlos' Bistro

Central · Colorado Springs · Fine Dining

Not rated

A bottle list with a long Napa Cabernet section and prices from 40 to 3,500, plus an 11-pour glass section at $7 to $25. Start with the Wine Specials page, where the Viña Alberdi Reserva Tempranillo is on the $60 list, or the CVNE Monopole Blanco at 40, and confirm prices because nothing is dated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.

Four by Brother Luck

Downtown · Colorado Springs · Southwestern

Not rated

A glass-focused list of 29 wines priced 12 to 21 beside a four-course Southwest menu. Start with the Scaia Corvina at 12 or the Bieler Cotes du Rhone Villages at 14, and confirm prices, since the image is named Summer-Cocktails-2026 and shows glass pours only. This unrated guide covers the posted glass list, not service, storage or markups.

Grand View Restaurant

Garden of the Gods · Colorado Springs · American

Not rated

A large, classic list built around Napa Cabernet, Bordeaux and Burgundy, with 13 glasses from $10 and a short Colorado section worth a look. Start with the $15 Catena Zapata Malbec by the glass, or order the $75 Ordinary Fellow Pinot Noir from Montezuma Valley, and check the vintage before you commit to a big bottle. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.

Paravicini's Italian Bistro

Old Colorado City · Colorado Springs · Italian

Not rated

An Italian and California list with named glass pours from $9.50 to $12 and bottles up to $325. Order the $10 Badia al Colle Chianti, or the $12 Banfi Chianti Classico with the Gnocchi Bolognese, and check the vintage when the bottle arrives since the list says vintages can change. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.

TAPAteria

Old Colorado City · Colorado Springs · Tapas

Not rated

A Spanish-leaning list in Old Colorado City with 22 glass/bottle pairs from 9/32 to 14/52, plus a bottle-only reserve group. Start with the 9/32 Lomas del Marques Rioja Tempranillo, or Wine Wednesday's 20% off bottles if the table is sharing. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups; confirm current deals before you go.

Uva Wine Bar

Northgate · Colorado Springs · American | Contemporary | Mediterranean

Not rated

A wine bar with about 200 bottles and a 33-wine glass page where most pours cost $11 to $16. Start with the $12 Ananto and the $30 uva BOARD, or step up to the Colterris Coloradeaux at $57 if you want a Colorado bottle. Both lists are marked ver 04-29-26, so confirm availability. This unrated guide covers the posted wine lists, not service, storage or markups.
