Decent wine in Galway pubs?

Was chatting with a friend about this. We're both partial to a glass of vino when out for a night. Most places though, only stock the individual bottles of wine. While some are fair, they all pack the same amount of sulphites in each as a regular large one. Extra sulphites are nasty and can give you a disproportionate hangover!
A few pubs do pour from the bottle and have good selections; Neachtains, Massimo to name a couple. Can ye suggest some more? Thanks

lohans in salthill will let you pick any bottle from the connected offie and drink it on the premises for a corkage charge. Cant remember how much but remember thinking it sounded reasonable

The Cottage; The Oslo; The Huntsman; The House hotel; Buskers; The Westwood; Bar No 8; Sheridans on the docks used to be fantastic too but obviously that met it's demise recently; you could still go to their wine bar I suppose. Some restaurants have wine bar efforts also but IMO these are always a bit cramped and because you're not eating you almost feel in the way.

Apart from the other places mentioned in previous posts it's more or less quarter bottles everywhere else I think!!
