I had the East/West back when it was included with the standard drink package, remember thinking it was pretty good. My favorite from the standard was the Tempranillo, which they sometimes/some places didn't have available.

Thanks for all the suggestions, I will try them all and maybe even a wine tasting! I am excited about the wine bar, haven't been to one on a NCL ship yet.

What, in your opinion, are the best red wine offerings on the upgraded drinks package? What shouldn't we miss trying? We are on the escape if that makes a difference. Thanks!

I respect and appreciate the crew and how hard they work. I too have worked very hard jobs, physically and mentally hard. I too have lived where I've worked for months (actually year+) on end with no days off, no holidays, 14-16 hours days, in cramped spaces with co-workers. I too had to deal with difficult clients that looked down on me and were impossible for no reason. I too got paid minimum wage and in many cases less. And I didn't even have a tipped position! I'm American. I cruise. I understand hard work. I doubt I'm the only one...
