Savvy's Verdict

"The Sportsman wine list: If you're celebrating with sparkling wine, Dom Pérignon 2013 is an absolute steal at a rock-bottom 47.5% markup for a bottle rated 4.6 on Vivino. Watch out for half-bottles like the Chablis Alain Geoffroy, which carry a brutal markup over 300% compared to buying full size. For red wine lovers, the Rioja Contino Viña del Olivo delivers exceptional quality with a massive 4.5 Vivino rating at just a 54.6% markup. If you're ordering by the glass, skip the single pour of Picpoul de Pinet and commit to the full bottle to save nearly 18% instantly."
