Wy should a wine of 14 dollars retail not be a good wine. I have had cheaper wines that are very good. My favorite wine is the Rioja Crianza 2008 from Muriel which I buy wholesal for only 5.50 euro a bottle.

I do not know howmit works in US but here in Europe itbis quite normal for the better restaurants to sell bottle of wine for 40 euro that they buy or 10 euro.
This is where the money is made. S it does not suprise me at all that the wines on the list are between 7-14 dollars retail.
We bought the premium drinks package lastbyear and we buy it again on our next cruise in July.
I love theidea of not being unpleasant suprised with a huge bar bill on the last day of the cruise. They have a good champagne , nice cocktails, specialty coffees and i thought nice very good drinkable wines.
We just did a Crystal cruise and I thought there winelist was limited too but okay.

We booked the Mayan Mystique and we deinitely are goin to buy thepremium package, we can also use our onboard credit for this.
We like to have different wines with different courses at dinner and lunch add to that a glass of champagne and a cocktail in the bar and it will be good value I guess.
Which famous person was on your cruise?

We had a lot of fun with Mark Childress who we actually did not know who he was at that time, on our TA with Crystal.
Also the Tommy Dorsey band was performing and the band members were hanging out with us in the pool area during the day.
