SDakota Cruiser Posted December 1, 2016 #1 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Does anyone know where wine can be purchased at the San Diego airport or neat the cruise port? Thank You!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted December 1, 2016 #2 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Can't remember the name of the drug store -- but it is a couple of blocks from the cruise port. There is also a store called Ralphs. Someone will come along with how far each is from the cruise port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxmantoo Posted December 1, 2016 #3 Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) If you are looking for a good selection of fine wines, head for The Wine Bank http://sdwinebank.com/ on 5th Avenue, a few blocks up from the port.

DAllenTCY Posted December 1, 2016 #5 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Rite aid is 3 blocks east of the Embarkadero on Ash St. Just walk across the street and around the north side of the Wyndam resort.....as soon as you've crossed the railroad tracks you'll see it on the left. (The cross street is Kettner). David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted December 1, 2016 #6 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Rite Aid is about 5 blocks away and about a 15 minute walk (from the pier). Ralphs is alot further. Agree. Rite Aid has a bit of selection of wine, but Ralph's really had some nice selections. If you are coming in the day of or just the night before, head for Rite Aid. If you have a couple of days, you have time to head to Ralph's. Prices aren't as good as Total Wine, but there are some very nice, reasonably priced wines as well as the more expensive ones. A really lovely store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarabella_Baby Posted December 2, 2016 #11 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Last May I stayed at the Sofia Hotel so just walked up to this place and then headed back towards the pier after. They had a respectable selection. Krisp 1036 Seventh Ave, San Diego, CA 92101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

navybankerteacher Posted April 5, 2017 #14 Share Posted April 5, 2017 We stopped at Rite-Aid on Ash Street to pick up a few bottles while walking back to our hotel after dinner at Little Italy the evening before boarding Westerdam. The selections and prices were reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankc98376 Posted April 5, 2017 #17 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I thought you can only bring 1 bottle each One bottle per person on embarkation day free. Corkage fee on more than one. In ports they are supposed to either hold it until the last night or charge corkage if you want to keep it with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
