Here is a list of top wines that are chosen by leading sommeliers of the USA that you can order in your favorite restaurants. These hand picked selections of wines have been chosen by a leading panel of judges that includes top restaurant wine buyers, master sommeliers and lead sommeliers of the USA. The number one question that judges asked while judging was will the customer order this and will they drink a second glass of this for the price it has?

So if you are wondering which wine to order when you go to a restaurant, look no further and ask your sommelier or restaurant staff below wines that have won the top category by the variety in the wine by glass scoring.
Typically restaurant wine by glass wine list does not tell you more than the name of the wine and price. In most cases, name is also not shown as they may put the wine under their ‘house red’ and ‘house white’ and in some cases, you may have so many choices that you dont know what to order and if its worth the price.
