A World-Class Cellar in the Ubud Highlands
Few restaurants in the region can claim a wine programme of this depth and ambition. The collection spans classic European appellations, prestigious New World producers, and everything in between, with labels ranging from accessibly priced everyday wines to some of the rarest bottles available in Indonesia. The wine collection at CasCades in Ubud is not just a list. It is a carefully curated journey through the finest wine-producing regions on earth, brought together in a single climate-controlled cellar perched above the Petanu River. Guests are welcome to explore the full range, from a well-chosen glass over lunch to an exceptional vintage that anchors a special occasion dinner.
Prestigious French Labels and Rare Vintages
The Champagne Collection
For those who believe some evenings simply demand Champagne, the selection at CasCades does not disappoint. The cellar holds some of the most celebrated names in prestige cuvée, including Armand de Brignac Ace of Spades, Louis Roederer Cristal, and Krug Grande Cuvée. Each bottle represents the pinnacle of what premium French Champagne in Ubud can look like, the result of generations of expertise and an uncompromising standard of production.
Exceptional Bordeaux and Burgundy
The red wine collection is anchored by some of the most revered names in French viticulture. Rare Bordeaux selections include Château Latour 1er Grand Cru 2001, a bottle that speaks to both the power and patience that define the greatest wines of the Left Bank. From Burgundy, Louis Jadot Bonnes Mares Grand Cru offers silky, layered complexity that only the finest Côte de Nuits vineyards can produce. For lovers of Burgundy vintages in Bali, these are bottles that reward slow sipping and genuine attention.
Sweet Indulgence From Sauternes
No great wine programme is complete without a dessert wine of real distinction. CasCades holds Château d’Yquem 1er Cru Supérieur, widely considered the greatest sweet wine in the world. Rich, complex, and impossibly elegant, it transforms the final chapter of a meal into something approaching the transcendent.
Curated Selections From the New World
Iconic Australian Shiraz and Cabernet
Australia’s finest producers are represented with the seriousness they deserve. The collection includes Torbreck The Laird, one of the most powerful Shiraz expressions the Barossa Valley has produced, alongside Henschke Hill of Grace and Penfolds Grange Bin 95, two bottles that have earned their place amongst the greatest wines on earth.
Contemporary Picks From New Zealand and the Americas
Cloudy Bay Chardonnay brings the cool-climate elegance of Marlborough to the table, whilst Pinot Noir selections from Oregon and Marlborough offer red fruit clarity and structural refinement. These are vibrant, contemporary wines that sit beautifully alongside the lighter preparations on the CasCades menu.
The Art of Wine Pairing at CasCades
Pairing With the Exclusive Rijsttafel
Pairing wine with the bold, layered spice profiles of Balinese cuisine is an art that the team at CasCades has refined with genuine expertise. For the Rijsttafel, the recommendation leans towards aromatic whites with enough acidity to hold their own against the complexity of Indonesian spices. Black Cottage Sauvignon Blanc offers clean, fruit-forward brightness, whilst Dr Loosen Riesling brings a precise, off-dry character that works in beautiful harmony with dishes such as Bebek Betutu and Ayam Pelalah. Fine dining in Ubud with wine pairing at this level turns a great meal into a complete sensory experience.
A La Carte and International Flavours
For guests exploring the à la carte menu, an Argentine Malbec brings depth and dark fruit concentration to complement slow-cooked meats, whilst a French Syrah from the Northern Rhône offers a more savoury, structured alternative that sits alongside grilled dishes with quiet authority.
Accessible Luxury by the Glass and Carafe
A world-class wine collection should never feel out of reach. Wines are available by the glass at 150ml or by the carafe at 250ml, giving guests the freedom to explore the list at their own pace. For those who prefer to discover local production, Two Island and Pinot de Bali represent the best of Indonesian winemaking, approachable, characterful, and a genuinely interesting complement to an evening at CasCades.
