Niku Steakhouse

This is a big, red driven list, 669 wines with reds making up 448 of them, built on classic European backbone. Bordeaux and Burgundy lead, with serious depth from names like Château Lafleur, Bouchard Père et Fils, and Barolo houses like Vietti, plus a strong California presence in Silver Oak, Farella, and Ceritas. The ceiling is high, running from blue chip trophies like Petrus, Château Rayas, and DRC Romanée Saint Vivant up to $8,000, but the median sits around $245 and bottles start at $18, so there is real room to drink well without going deep. Whites and sparkling are present but secondary at 126 and 36, and the rosé and orange categories are almost an afterthought. The by the glass program is tight at 19 pours, so this list rewards guests who commit to a bottle, especially red drinkers chasing Bordeaux, Burgundy, or aged California Cabernet alongside the beef.
