[b-survivor]

Does anyone know if they have wine tasting on the Victory? Or Martini tasting? Any wine tasting pictures?

I think there was a thread about martini tasting just yesterday. And there are several huge Victory cruise reviews recently posted.

Yes! There is a wine seminar on the Victory on your sea day. I believe it started at 1PM. It's great, we loved it! It takes place in the Atlantic Dining room and no reservation required. There is a $10 charge, but totally worth it. They explain the different types of wine, pairing, how to store, etc.

That looks like soo much fun! Do all ships offer this? Elation in particular.

Wow - those look like regular sized glasses with a generous pour! I can hardly get one of those for less than $10!

The Elation did do the wine tasting last week. I dont remember what day it was but it was mid afternoon and listed in the Fun Times. There was not a Martini tasting though, much to my disappointment.

I was SHOCKED to say the least! I was expecting maybe a shot glass full, but not 5 full glasses! Eat lunch before if you're a lightweight! :p

How about the Dream? Wine tasting looks really cooooool

[luv-my-kids]

Looks like alot of fun. I wonder if its cheap wine or pretty good wine.

We're on the Conquest in April. Does anyone know when the wine tasting is usually held on the Conquest? I'd like to know. Thanks.

Nevermnd...I think I answered my own question. (I had to put my glasses on to read) It looks like it said under the first glass Woodbridge White Zinfandel . If I am correct that is very cheap wine. Still may be fun for $10.00. But I was hoping for a little better quality.

I believe one of the other brands was Fetzer too, I know I didn't recognize some of the others. It's definitely not vintage barrel or anything like that. To spend $10 for 5 glasses of wine and a fun couple of hours is worth it.

holy crap those are extremely generous pours for a wine tasting.. wow, I would be done for the day after that!

[Mel1322]

They are huge pours! I guess they can do that when they are not really expensive wine. I plan on going on our upcoming cruise, it should be fun.

[pjinaz]

You got lucky with those pours. We have done the Carnival wine tasting twice and I can tell you we didn't get anywhere near that amount of wine. I would have fallen over on my way out of there.

We did the martini tasting on the Glory last year and felt it was worth the money. We weren't he only ones as the bar was packed when this was going on. Sorry can't remember the cost maybe around $12 for 4 different kinds? The wine tasting was in the middle of the day and the martini was at night at a much better time.

wow, I just did this on the DReam and our glasses weren't filled nearly as much as yours. the sommelier kept saying it was wine tasting not wine drinking. They gave you some food to try the wine with and there literally wasn't enough wine to do all the different sips --- with cheese, with steak . . . etc. I was disappointed. Also they always do 3 whites and 2 reds . . . I am a red wine drinker so I would rather have 3 reds and 2 whites but I'm glad I did it once. It was $15 plus tax and gratuity on the Dream --- about $18 total

[sophia37]

I love wine! It can be a $50 bottle or 2buck chuck... I'M IN!!!

[CruiseinNJ]

We had martini tasting last yearon the Pride - 5 for $15. If you didn't want one kind, you could get 2 of a different one.

[OhioGramsey]

We did the wine tasting on the Fantasy this past Nov. and had glasses that were about 2/3 full. The wine was served with cheese, crackers, sugar and lemon slices for $10.00 no tips. Held on the first sea day we had to make reservations.
