wine list
got me some wine
the ladies love wine
2
welcome to the wines of perrone’s
we are always tweaking and tuning to create a list
with quality wines at prices that won’t make you wince.
please understand that some quantities are limited, and we are
continuously adding and removing wines.
the service fee is $35 per bottle
with a limit of 2 bottles per table.
(magnums and larger will be charged as two bottles).
in the world of wine
this eternal question is always pondered:
spit or swallow?
from time to time, you
may order a wine that
is out of stock. we
have designed the list
with many alternative
wines in the same
price range and flavor
profile. management
would be happy to
assist to you in
another choice.
our restaurant carries
an extensive wine list.
however, we do allow
you to bring in a
sentimental bottle from
your own collection
for a special occasion.
(excluding bottles
already on our list).

by the glass we do not have a “house wine.”
in europe, a “house wine” is a glass or carafe of wine made from
the local grape. it can be quite delicious…or it can taste like turpentine.
in the united states, the definition of a “house wine” is a basic, everyday,
not particularly special, inexpensive offering purchased in a large format.
or, in restaurant speak, the cheapest wine we could get our hands on
to sell off for a major profit to people who don’t know any better.
that is not how we roll at perrones.
we care way too much about our guests. every wine that is on our list,
glass or bottle, is personally tasted and selected to enhance your
experience. it’s a tough job, but somebody has to do it!
we pour a healthy 6 oz. of wine into a 20 oz. crystal glass.
“i finally drank enough wine to tolerate you…
you may now speak.”

by the glass ‘reserve’
all reserve wines are 3 oz. or 6 oz. pours
kept in a temperature, humidity controlled unit.
white wines are stored at 47.* red wines are stored at 61.*
all are dispensed with the coravin system.
the coravin wine preservation system allows you to pour wine from a bottle without
removing the cork. a thin, non-coring, medical grade needle passes through the cork to
access and pour the wine. as the wine is dispensed into the glass, the bottle is replaced with
inert argon gas. oxygen never enters the bottle, so no oxidation or deterioration of the wine
ever occurs. when the needle is removed, the cork reseals and continues to protect the wine
indefinitely, assuring the same level of quality again and again.
the coravin system will allow our guests to sample and enjoy highly allocated, rare,
and aged wines that were previously too cost prohibitive to open and serve by the glass.
the coravin has revolutioned how we can experience wine.
“life is too short to drink bad wine.”

let’s start with bubbles! "i only drink champagne when i'm happy, and when i'm sad. sometimes i drink it
when i'm alone. when i have company, i consider it obligatory. i trifle with it if i am not hungry and drink it when i am. otherwise i never touch it - unless i'm thirsty."
- lily bollinger
champagne
grower champagne: aka “farmer’s fizz”
these are sparkling wines made in the champagne region of france that are produced by the same
estate that owns the vineyards from which the grapes come. this allows for a hands-on
production and that chain of agricultural accountability (think farm-to-table). It has the kind of
singularity of character that, say, a single barrel bourbon does. if it all comes from a handful of acres on
the same vineyard, there’s a sense of micro terroir, or “authenticity of place”. whereas those larger
‘branded,’ houses can source their grapes from over 19,000 different vineyards in the champagne
region. some big brands blend grapes from up to 1000 vineyards. that’s a lot of moving parts.
