You walk through a glass door marked with a single letter into a nine-seat room with a steel bar, and the wine list lands in your hands like a love letter to the Iberian Peninsula. This is not a list built for the Vegas masses — it's built for the person who already knows what Pingus is and wants to drink it somewhere worthy. The intimacy of the space sets the tone: everything here is intentional, including what's in your glass.

The list runs 150-plus bottles and barely strays outside Spain, which is exactly the right call. You get the full spectrum — Rioja royalty like CVNE Imperial Gran Reserva and Muga Prado Enea sitting alongside Priorat heavyweights like Alvaro Palacios L'Ermita, with López de Heredia's Viña Tondonia anchoring the old-school traditionalist corner. Sherry gets serious treatment thanks to Lustau and Equipo Navazos, which is rare even in restaurants that claim to care about Spain. The one gap worth noting: outside a few Galician whites, the non-red Spanish categories feel thin relative to how deep the reds go.

With 15-25 options rotating through, the glass program is one of the better reasons to sit at the bar rather than commit to a bottle immediately. Gramona III Lustros Cava makes a strong case as your opening move — it's a sparkling wine that actually has something to say, not just fizz to fill the first ten minutes. Telmo Rodríguez bottlings tend to cycle through as well, giving you access to a producer who works across multiple Spanish regions without asking you to pick a lane.
