Cote Korean Steakhouse
This is a tight, grower minded list of about 40 wines, and the thing to understand is that almost all of it pours by the glass, 34 of 40, so you can guide guests freely without pushing bottles. It leans toward bubbles and grower Champagne, with names like Egly Ouriet and Etienne Calsac, alongside crisp, food friendly whites and a solid run of reds including Jean Foillard from Beaujolais. Pricing is genuinely accessible, bottles start at $18 and the median sits around $38, so most of the list is easy to recommend, with Dom Pérignon and Taittinger Comtes de Champagne at $95 as the top of the everyday range. The real splurge sits in the dessert and fortified section, where the d'Oliveiras Madeiras climb to $665. This rewards a guest who trusts the by the glass program and wants character over big names, and it pairs cleanly with the smoke and salt of Korean barbecue.
