Nobody drinks wine by the bottle or Nobody cares less? lol CC has really gone down hill since my few years cruising absence! just as CruiseLine's have! Lol

My wife bought a bottle of D'arenburg sav blanc for $56 and drank it over 3 nights in the restaurants.

She did this because it cost $13 for a small sav blanc on the first night and as she only ever has 1 or 2 over dinner a bottle was better value.

At the end of the night you just take the bottle to your room finish it there or just put it in the fridge for later. (some people just take it around with them and drink it at the other venues on board)

There were other sav blancs on the menu at each restaurants but from memory they were around $70 per bottle.

These are some photos from May Pacific Explorer wine menus.

 

I am not a red drinker so I can't  answer OP's specific question.

 

I am also aware this is a late reply but posting anyway incase others have similar questions.

 

I am usually on the general Cruise Critic Australian & New Zealand Cruises board, which I think seems to get faster answers.

You don't have to cart the partially used bottle around with you if you want the wine to drink with meals. You can leave it with the waiter in the dining room. They take your name and cabin number and keep it for you. Next meal, they will bring it out for you. I have never had any problem with them losing the bottle or that the level seemed to have dropped. As a solo traveller, this is the best way for me to have a better selection of wines, because wines by the glass are very limited, and work out more expensive.
