Metropolitan Grill
Treat this as a tight by the glass program rather than a deep cellar list, since all sixteen pours are available by the glass and nothing runs over $27. It leans red, with eight of the sixteen wines, and the bottles people will gravitate to sit in the low to mid teens, so it is built for easy ordering and turning tables, not for chasing rarity. The strengths are Pacific Northwest, with Oregon showing through Ponzi and Amity Vineyards and Washington carrying the higher end with DeLille Cellars 'D2' and the house Metropolitan Grill Cabernet by Balboa. Sparkling is covered cleanly from Prosecco up to Laurent Perrier La Cuvee Brut at the top of the list. This rewards a guest who wants a solid local glass without studying a book, so steer them to the Oregon reds and the Washington Cabernet.
