A Wine Bar with Sommelier-Curated Selections

No reservations are needed to enjoy our wine bar—it's open for walk-ins and operates on a first-come, first-served basis. Whether you're stopping by for a spontaneous glass of wine after a hike, looking to unwind after dinner, or meeting friends for an evening drink, our wine bar is always ready to welcome you. The space offers bar seating as well as nearby lounge-style options depending on availability, and the atmosphere remains cozy and inviting throughout the evening. Our staff is happy to assist with recommendations, food pairings, or simply pouring your favorite vintage. During busy nights, particularly those with live music, bar seats can fill up quickly—so if you’re planning a specific time, feel free to call ahead to check on availability. But rest assured, you don’t need a formal reservation—just walk in, take a seat, and enjoy Evergreen’s most charming wine destination.

Our wine list is curated by JR Iannaccone, Bistro Del Lago’s certified Level 1 Sommelier, and reflects a thoughtful mix of Italian classics, regional favorites, and unique seasonal finds. We proudly feature wines from renowned Italian regions, such as Tuscany, Piedmont, and Sicily, alongside selections from France, California, and other notable wine-producing areas. The goal is to offer variety without overwhelming—each bottle and glass is chosen for its quality, character, and compatibility with our menu. Whether you prefer bold reds, crisp whites, earthy rosés, or sparkling options, our wine list provides something for every palate and occasion. You’ll also find rotating specials, limited releases, and hidden gems not listed elsewhere. If you’re unsure where to begin, our team is trained to help guide you to the perfect pour. Every wine is served at optimal temperature and presentation—because the little things make a big difference in your experience.

Absolutely. Our full dinner menu is available at the wine bar, so you can enjoy handmade pastas, small plates, and desserts alongside your favorite beverage. Many guests prefer the bar for its casual atmosphere, making it a great spot for solo dining, date nights, or spontaneous drop-ins. Whether you’re sipping wine or enjoying a craft cocktail, our food is designed to pair beautifully with your drink. Popular options include our burrata starter, truffle pasta, and seasonal specials—perfect for sharing or savoring on your own. Our staff is happy to suggest pairings based on what you’re drinking, and the relaxed bar environment allows for a more conversational, low-pressure dining experience. The bar also makes a great place to try new items, ask questions, and explore the menu at your own pace. Come hungry—or just come for a nibble and a nightcap. Either way, you’re in good hands.

Yes, we proudly offer wine flights and tasting options that allow you to explore a curated range of selections. Our flights typically feature three to four wines grouped by region, varietal, or theme—such as “Italian Reds,” “Sommelier’s Picks,” or “Seasonal Favorites.” These tastings are a fantastic way to discover new wines, compare styles, and expand your palate with the guidance of our trained team. Each pour is accompanied by tasting notes, and our staff is happy to guide you through the flavor profiles, pairings, and background information on the producers. Flights are available by request and often change with the season or new additions to the wine list. If you’d rather customize your own, we can arrange by-the-glass samplers tailored to your preferences. Whether you're a wine novice or enthusiast, our flights make for a fun, interactive experience that elevates your visit to the wine bar.

Definitely. While we take pride in our sommelier-curated wine list, our cocktail program is equally exceptional. You’ll find a selection of handcrafted cocktails made with fresh ingredients, house-made infusions, premium spirits, and creative garnishes. Our menu features both timeless classics and seasonal creations—designed to pair perfectly with our food or stand out on their own. Popular favorites include herb-forward spritzes, citrusy bourbon blends, and espresso-based nightcaps. We also offer zero-proof cocktails for those seeking non-alcoholic options without compromising on flavor or presentation. The wine bar is fully equipped and staffed by knowledgeable bartenders who take pride in crafting something unique to suit your preferences. Whether you’re in the mood for something bold and stirred or light and refreshing, we’ll make sure your drink hits the mark. Come for the wine, stay for the cocktails—it’s all part of the Bistro Del Lago experience.
