Wine Bars on the Las Vegas Strip

While most of the restaurants in Vegas have ultra-impressive wine lists, there are a few establishments known for their signature wine selections.

Wine Cellar and Tasting Room at The Rio (TEMPORARILY CLOSED)

This is the treasure trove of wine bars. Travel downstairs to walk into a wealth of wine, from decades-old vintages to magnum bottles.

The ambiance at the Wine Cellar is reminiscent of a rustic Italian cellar, with stucco details and the golden, dusky hues of a just-set sun. If that sounds authentic, it’s because it is—there is a fair amount of history behind some of the bottles, from their origins to famous keepers.

The staff are knowledgeable and involved in the wine community. Private events can be scheduled at this illustrious location.

Rio Las Vegas is one of the coveted hotels on the Las Vegas Strip. Read more about stays of all sorts for your next accommodation.
