The Texas-based steakhouse will be moving into the old Esquire Theater space on Oak Street this winter, and we hear the wine list will be as impressive as the space itself.

Red: 2009 Penley Estate Phoenix Cabernet Sauvignon — $16.99
About: "Penley Estate is a family-run winery with history dating back to 1858. Warm days and cool nights provide ideal conditions for the vines to ripen to maturity. The wine has a dark crimson color with hints of purple. Plum, blackcurrant, and blackberry are the dominant fruits. There are light hints of cedar, vanilla, and toasted oak. The Cabernet fruit is complex but provides an elegant and balanced finish."
Goes With: "This wine is delicious by itself or pairs well with any grilled or roasted meat."
Available At: Any Chicago area Binny's.

White: 2011 Chateau Ste. Michelle Eroica Riesling — $16.99
About: "Riesling produces one of the most versatile and food-friendly grapes on the planet. Two iconic winemakers work together to bring a fascinating dynamic of new and old-world techniques to this unique project. The wine is a light-golden color with hint of green. Peach, pear, orange, and lime aromas jump from the glass."
Goes With: "Try it with any seafood, Asian cuisine, or my personal favorite — sushi."
Available At: Any Chicago area Binny's.
