A Wine-By-The Glass List For A Luxury Seafood Restaurant A seafood restaurant wine by-the-glass list should contain high acid white wines and a small number of minimally tannic red wines. The list should include many regions and varying price points. The number of wines will depend on preservation methods. Ideally, twelve to twenty wines should be offered.
