The Restaurant at Kanopi

You ride a glass elevator 42 floors above White Plains to get here, so the bar for drama is already set before you open the wine list. What you find is a focused, Portugal-forward list that actually makes sense with the kitchen — a rare thing. It's not sprawling, but it's curated with a point of view.

The list leans hard into Iberia, which is exactly right for a Portuguese restaurant, and the heavy hitters are genuinely impressive: Prats & Symington Chryseia, Niepoort Vinhos, and Quinta do Crasto anchor the Douro section with real authority. Spain gets its due with Vega Sicilia Unico and Alvaro Palacios L'Ermita — serious bottles that signal someone cared enough to source them. California shows up in the form of Ridge Monte Bello and Opus One, which reads more like crowd-pleaser insurance than a coherent program extension, but the Iberian spine is strong enough to forgive the detour. Port lovers will be happy: Dow's and Graham's Vintage Port entries round out a list that actually follows through on the restaurant's identity.

With 12 to 20 pours available and glasses running $12–$18, the by-the-glass program is accessible without being cheap — and at this altitude, that's the right call. The range likely pulls from the Douro and Alentejo selections that define the bottle list, which gives you a real taste of what this kitchen is built around. We'd push staff to walk you through the Portuguese options specifically; that's where this program earns its keep.
