sharke Posted January 7, 2013 #2 Share Posted January 7, 2013 you can find these packages on the website listed in your reservation area of My Celebrity. Click the beverage packages tab. There is a classic pkg and a premium pkg with sample wines. There's 3, 5, & 7 bottles. We just purchased the 7 bottle classic for $251.85 but after looking at the wines we are going to upgrade to the premium at $309. You can also buy on the ship. Then you will know the exact wines offered. The pkgs include the corkage & 15% gratuities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lsimon Posted January 7, 2013 #3 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Be careful, I've read some comments on the boards that claim that the packages could be more expensive, and not a savings, depending on which of the wines you choose. In general the packages are supposed to provide a small discount on a limited selection of similarly priced wines. Even if the discount is really there the packages don't appeal to us as the selection of wines is very limited in comparison to Celebrity's huge wine list. Here is a link to a copy of the MDR wine list from a recent cruise. http://lfsimon.home.comcast.net/~lfsimon/Wine-List-MDR-Silhouette-Dec-2012-s.pdf The wines available under the packages are listed on pages 18 and 19. These are a small selection of the many wines available in the first 16 pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is also useful to see which wines available by the glass are included in the Premium Beverage Package (12$ and less), including some ports but unfortunately not the 20 year Tawny (13$).

Remember that with the premium package you can just pay the price difference between $12 and the price of that Tawny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
