I don't know about Good Spirits bar though, if your ship has one and if you go there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To help anyone coming into this thread and avoid them spending dozens of minutes browsing through threads - these look to be a later version of menus that are inclusive of plus & premium pricing. The Explorers menu shows a good example of the sorts of splits between Plus & Premium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinFinsUp Posted August 3, 2022 #8 Share Posted August 3, 2022 I find it interesting that the Plus wines are listed by type only and not by brand. Are they switching to a "house" wine system? Or is it whatever brand the location has? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OKCruiseMan Posted August 3, 2022 #9 Share Posted August 3, 2022 One thing to consider. If you buy a $14 drink on the $12 plan you only pay the difference. At least that is the way I read it. May work best for many. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suite Susie Posted August 3, 2022 #10 Share Posted August 3, 2022 The Plus Package is only House Wines I think. We are currently on Enchanted and they seem to be using Italian wines with Tino on the bottle. We are on the Premier Package, so haven’t tried any yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your comments about "house" wine seem accurate and the change is not popular. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedferg Posted August 3, 2022 #12 Share Posted August 3, 2022 If my memory serves me correctly, there were not too many choices when they did list the brand. Often just one or two Cabs, one Chardonay. When we are at local restaurants, we often just ask for house wine. Typically we just have one glass with the meal, DW has white, chardonnay, and I have a red, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The was like 1 Chard 1 Pinot Grigio etc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Chardonnays, but that doesn't mean I like ALL Chardonnays. Maybe if I knew what they were going to serve me, if I don't like it I would pay the upcharge, but to just serve me 'pot luck' is pretty annoying..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We looked at it every night we ate in the MDR or specialty restaurants to pick wine - even tho' on our previous trips we didn't have Plus. On our next cruise we will have Plus but we'll pick out our favorites, if we can find them for $12 and under, and if not, pay the difference.

I won't argue that they will have a series of Italian sourced wines as part of the "house" list. But I did see one of the new menus posted in a thread here not long ago and there were varietals listed you won't really find produced in Italy. No doubt there is a representation of Cali plonk in there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slyfox16 Posted August 3, 2022 #19 Share Posted August 3, 2022 With the plus package what is the price a drink can go up to before you have to pay the difference? My wife likes a martini with either Titos or Gray Goose, but didn't see anything listed for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The menu for 007 martini actually says made with Goose and comes in under $12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
