That's great...thank you very much for that detailed price list. :D

Always have been impressed that the markups for the wines on Princess are pretty reasonable given there is no competition on board.

Thank you for posting this.

Nice to see ahead of time the wines I will be enjoying in November.

Largin;

That list took some time and effort and we appreciate the effort.

However, I looked real close and I did not see the check marks by the ones that you popped a cork on during the last cruise.:D

Bob

thank you from a fellow oenophile:D

On our 16 day b2b2b on the Coral ending yesterday we enjoyed Murrieta's Well "The Spur", Shug & Ferrari-Carano Merlots, Frogs Leap Zin, Silverado & Kenwood Jack London Cabs and the Bolla Amarone. Our favorite was "The Spur" Meritage. We had 5 bottles of that wine.. :D

Thanks for the information....it is great to see what will be offered and also nice to hear your opinion regarding your favorites!

Smiles,Connie

Largin:

Thanks. I added the "The Spur" to my pocket notebook. Will look for it on the November Cruise.

Bob

Thanks a lot for the list LARGIN. Am on Ruby next week, going to hit that list ! Like to purchase a bottle of wine in the MDR each night.

Thanks for the list.

Cheers!

Thanks for the posting of the wine list!!!

I love to pre-plan my beverage of choice.(expresso is a given):)

Thank you ! Very useful for making decision about what to buy to bring onboard and what to plan to bring onboard!

Thanks for the recommendations...I've enjoyed the Silverado & the Kenwood Jack London Cabs at Chef's Tables & now they're a favorite of mine. :D

Thank you very much! We're leaving in 10 days and having this list is very helpful!

For those who like a glass on the balcony, Black Box wine travels well in checked luggage and fits perfectly in the fridge. I'm generally not a fan of boxed wine, but do think that Black Box is better than most. It's a lot easier than taking four bottles too!

Don't bring it to the dining room though!:rolleyes:

Thank you for posting this.. might give some of them a go here to see what we like best... I do see some old familar favorites. I have saved the list; very helpful.

Thank you for posting the wine list.....:):):)

On our recent cruise, I too was really impressed by Princess wine list. Lots of good selections, and the markup is quite reasonable.

That Murietta's Well meritage was excellent. We also drank a couple of bottles of it.

Checked these prices against a partial list from 2009 and the increases are minimal. Ten bottles increase by $2-3 each and were mostly bottles in the 20's and low 30's.

Hope that approach remains. It helps my daily bottle of wine with dinner budget. :)

Nice to see a Sancerre onboard - always a fave of ours. Ditto for the Gewurz which we enjoyed at the wine bar in the atrium mid-afternoon w/ sushi.

Some nice low-ends here also: the LaPostelle Cabby & the Caliterra Tributo are nice Chilean Cabs. The Cote-d-Rhone and Chateauneuf also satisy.

The Domaine Chandon at $35 is a nice diversion for the balcony and a worthy step-up from the Korbel at $28. I remember buying the Veuve Cliquot for $48 on board not too many years ago.

Our go-to in the MDR is usually the Jack London, but I'll be sure to try the Murietta at your suggestion!

Thanks, cheers!

Thank you for taking the time to post the wine list...

Nice to see they still have the Opus One on the list. On our last two cruises we went to the "higher" end wine tasting event and were offered a special to purchase a bottle of Opus and get a free dinner for two in any of the specialty restaurants as well as a refund of the $10pp to attend the wine tasting. Turned a $169 bottle of wine into a $100 bottle, which I will take again if offered. Wonderful stuff:)

I found that in order to get pricing similar to Princess on RCCL, I had to buy a 'wine package' & required to purchase "x" number of bottles to get a discount. :eek:

Wow, that's a good deal! That may persuade me to go the tastings, which we usually pass on. Thanks for that!
