Val W Posted April 21, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Thinking of booking Silversea for the first time, please can somebody share with me the wine menu. I like Sauv Blanc but only New Zealand Marlborough, some Gruner Veltliner and Sancerre wines. Are these generally available in the bars and the restaurants and included in the All Inclusive product. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you The only NZ Sav Blanc is usually Tiki. There is also a Chilean Sav Blanc and a Pouilly Fume. There is no Sancerre on the comp list but there is a $65 Pascal Jolivet which is nice. Cloudy Bay is $50 Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stumblefoot Posted April 21, 2018 #3 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Not from NZ, but we enjoyed both Domaine de Chevalier and Château Olivier from the Pessac-Léognan appellation of Bordeaux on a recent voyage.

Stumblefoot Posted April 21, 2018 #5 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Val W, I forgot to mention they also have my favorite Sauvignon blanc and Sémillon blend; Château d’Yquem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stumblefoot Posted April 21, 2018 #7 Share Posted April 21, 2018 We think alike! And the pricing isn't bad.Glad to hear it Emtbsam! I’ve always been generally impressed with the prices on the Connoisseurs list, especially from the Italian vintners, where I’ve been to enjoy several wines for less than what I would have to pay U.S. retail. Another example of what I appreciate about Silversea. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stumblefoot Posted April 21, 2018 #9 Share Posted April 21, 2018 That’s interesting Mr. Silver as I didn’t know d’Yquem bottled a ‘99 vintage. On our last voyage they had an ‘06 375ml for $210. I believe upon release in America it cost $295 retail. So, $210 was quite the deal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Silver Spectre Posted April 22, 2018 #10 Share Posted April 22, 2018 It’s not a particularly good year and on some vintage charts only gets 88 points. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you NZ Marlborough Sav Blanc also our favourite.Available as complementary as all wines were in our first five years of SS cruising .Then it moved to the pay list when that commenced early 2000’s.Not available on our last few cruises ....shame but feel over the last 20 years the quality of the complementary wines has improved but recognise its all a matter of personal choice.Happy hunting for what suits you.

rpfarris Posted August 25, 2018 #13 Share Posted August 25, 2018 On our last voyage they had an ‘06 [Chateau d'Yquem] 375ml for $210. I didn't find the '06 all that good either. On the other hand, the Hungarian Tokaji is stellar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
