plank Posted April 18, 2022 #1 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Can't remember if you can bring wine onboard? I know you can on Royal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare chemmo Posted April 18, 2022 #2 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Two standard bottles, can be champagne. Free to consume in your cabin, corkage charge in restaurants, $25 I think… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends upon how good it is, and whether it will have time to recover from the transportation in time to drink it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted April 18, 2022 #6 Share Posted April 18, 2022 We always bring on two bottles and the corkage fee is 25 , we like bringing on better wines like caymus, Silverado or Stags leap. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you deal with sediment and decanting on older reds? Fortunately, we tend to take longish cruises, so somewhere towards the end, they've usually settled out again.

These wines aren’t that old and very little if any sediment , we also never decant our wines . I have friends that will open some much older wines , wines I buy I had recently purchased at a liquor store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted April 18, 2022 #9 Share Posted April 18, 2022 One thing we found some years ago is that there are a very few aboard who are actually capable of properly decanting a wine that really needs it, and they have always been very good about doing it for us at the table. They'd always haul out the nice stemware from the specialty restaurant for us for the occasion, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree on stemware , we have been offered decanting in the past , we only eat in Luminae or specialty restaurants. I mentioned this before but only time we were not charged corkage the sommelier was very interested in our wine and asked if he could taste it and we were not charged😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a Chard lover and bring Cakebread or Cuvaison. Can’t get those on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the standard allowed is two 750 ml bottles, have you ever had your 5000 ml box confiscated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
