I just googled Cruise the Vineyards and found all the details on the Carnival site. 3 for $77 or 5 for $119. Full list of offerings. Can be ordered from your MDR waiter; for consumption in MDR. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsglow Posted September 27, 2022 #3 Share Posted September 27, 2022 There's 2 different levels; standard and premium. Both are available in 3 and 5 bottle packages. We always get the premium (think 'solid', not 'spectacular') And an 18% tip is charged. I don't remember exactly but the fully loaded price on the premium 3 bottle was about $110. Many bottles available on it 'rack rate' before tip in the low $40s. Add 18% and it's close to $60. Of course that same wine is $20-$25 at Total Wine, etc. If you plan to drink 3 bottles (or more) on your cruise, it's a meaningful savings. I believe all the wines available on Premium are available as part of Cheers. So if you go that route.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sredish Posted September 27, 2022 #4 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Thanks for posting about this! I had no idea this existed. Found all the info just now on the CCL site and sent it to my mom. We're cruising with my parents and they just don't drink enough to justify the cheers package, but a selection of 5 bottles will do them nicely for dinner! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsglow Posted September 28, 2022 #5 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Yep. We routinely do it. For most cruises for us, a single liquor bottle for the room and a wine package is more than enough. We'll still buy the occasional beer/drink at a bar but like 1-2 a day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backbiter Posted September 28, 2022 #6 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Tried to buy a package on the Pride last week, but was told they weren't available due to shortages. We said we didn't want a wide range, as we tend to stick to one or two varieties and don't really experiment, but they still refused to sell us one.

We don’t drink enough to justify cheers and the wine package is perfect for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
