Red Rooster

The wine list at Red Rooster feels exactly like the room it lives in — polished, dependable, and designed to please a broad audience. A Four Diamond resort restaurant with 150-plus bottles and a sommelier on staff signals that somebody cares, even if the list doesn't take many risks. You're not going to be surprised, but you're not going to be embarrassed either.

California leads the charge here, with France, Italy, and the Pacific Northwest rounding out the supporting cast — a classic American fine-casual spread that covers the table without venturing too far from the mainstream. Jordan and Stags' Leap anchor the list with recognizable, crowd-friendly names that land well with a resort clientele who wants quality without homework. There's enough depth across 150-plus bottles to find something interesting, but the list reads more like a greatest-hits compilation than a curated deep dive. Serious wine hunters won't find much to geek out over, but everyone else is in good hands.

Twelve pours by the glass at $14–$22 is a reasonable spread for a resort restaurant of this caliber, and the range covers white, red, and presumably sparkling without making you feel trapped. Meiomi Pinot Noir showing up as a by-the-glass anchor is a tell — this program is optimized for familiarity over discovery. That said, the sommelier's presence suggests the glass list gets at least occasional attention.
