Grill 23 & Bar

This is a Grand Award list at full scale, about 2,541 bottles built on a Bordeaux and California Cabernet spine, with red wine making up nearly half the book and real depth in Burgundy and the Rhone behind it. The strengths are old school and serious. Dönnhoff anchors a deep Riesling run, Domaine Jean Louis Chave covers Hermitage, and the high end climbs into Henri Jayer, DRC, and Chave Cathelin well past $19,000. Prices span enormously, from $9 up to nearly $23,000 with a median around $392, so there is real money on this list but also genuine entry points if you know where to look. The 44 glass pours give you something to work with on the floor, though the list rewards the collector and the guest chasing benchmark Burgundy, Bordeaux, and Cabernet more than the casual drinker.
