Awards & Recognition 
Restaurant Hospitality's 16th Annual Best Wine Lists In America

Southpark Seafood Grill and Wine Bar was awarded top honors for its wine program and Guy du Vin was the original writer of that list when the restaurant opened in 1998. Southpark is the winner in the Short List Category in Restaurant Hospitality's 16th Annual Best Wine Lists In America Competition. The judges were the experts at the independent Beverage Testing Institute. We are particularly pleased with this quote from the accompanying article:

"The winners of the short list category and particularly the 1st place winner, Southpark Seafood Grill, explored a diverse and exciting range of wines within a fun and creative presentation. The Southpark list was last year's winner and it remains head and shoulders above the competition this year." (emphasis added)

We know that it may be a little unseemly to crow about it when you get a compliment, and as we read in Steve Edmunds' newsletter recently, quoting the novelist Jim Harrison, "the goose that's trying to lay golden eggs shouldn't use a mirror to look at its butt." But the truth is, we don't mind being mentioned with the likes of Charlie Trotter, The Herbfarm, Restaurant Gary Danko and Canlis! In addition, what makes this award even more meaningful than some of the other awards Southpark has received is the strict and detailed criteria used to pick the winners. No favorites, lots of competition and no sending in your $250 check for a guaranteed award (a la The Wine Spectator).
