Thanks eddieandjojo...
The wine list is fairly eclectic, overpriced, and totally misunderstood by the 'chef' and his brigade. If you are looking for any help on tasting notes and pairing with your meal - don't ask the staff; you'd be better off consulting a wine app or the inter webs from your phone. Last time we were there, the wine list was heavily populated with new world wine, mixed from larger known houses and some fairly obscure producers. On our first trip to Pearl (just months after it opened) we spent some time in the 'cellar' and asked a pile of questions about how they came upon this mix... we were told that the wines in the room were 'left over' from the previous incarnation of the resort. Don't know if that was true, or if they just couldn't answer our questions.
As eddieandjojo know - we bring our own wine.
Will you be there at the same time as us? Don't be afraid to say Hi!
