I love Riesling (I'll take it dry or sweet). While I typically gravitate towards Rieslings from Germany, I have seen the Chateau Ste. Michelle Riesling on some of the Princess menus. I live near San Francisco and wine country, and this is a common offering at high-end restaurants. It's a solid wine, though it won't blow you away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer French ones myself... they are generally less sweet and that is my preference. Having said that, sweet or dry a good Riesling is always appreciated 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doghog Posted April 18 #28 Share Posted April 18 If the wine I order taste good to me, that's a good wine. Nothing else matters. 🍷 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You assumed I don't. I felt it wasn't necessary to say it. Adds nothing to my response. Cheers. Edited April 18 by doghog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t care for any of the Chardonnays in the bars on the Regal. Boarding the Enchanted on Saturday and hoping for something better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goofyisme Posted April 18 #38 Share Posted April 18 Does anyone know where there might be a wine list for Princess? I know this would vary from ship to ship and cruise to cruise. Just trying to get an idea of what bottles and glasses might be out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask on the Roll Call forum for one of the next cruise to see if someone would take pictures of the wine lists and post back on CC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was excellent and it was $2 per glass higher than the Plus per glass cost limit (included in Premier). I just paid the extra however many times the staff didn't bother to charge it. When we were on Grand last year they'd hiked the price of the Henschke up to $29 a glass so $7 higher than Plus. It is indeed a very nice drop.
