Princess Cruises this previous spring started providing an unique Caymus Vineyards Winemaker Dinner. The decadent meal is now obtainable throughout your complete fleet within the Crown Grill specialty restaurant for $140 per particular person.
The brand new eating expertise leverages the expansive experience of Chuck Wagner, proprietor and winemaker of the famend Napa Valley’s Caymus Vineyards, to ship a five-course menu crafted to enhance the tasting notes of his wines. The dinner, obtainable for 12 friends per seating, will likely be supplied two to a few occasions per cruise, based mostly on voyage size, and friends can reserve their spot as soon as on board.
Wagner personally chosen the wines paired with the multicourse menu. Along with iconic Caymus Napa Valley cabernet sauvignon, he matched up the dinner programs with varietals from the household’s different choices, together with Caymus-Suisun ‘The Strolling Idiot’ Crimson Mix, Mer Soleil Reserve Chardonnay, Sea Solar Pinot Noir and Emmolo Glowing.
Later this yr, friends can have the chance to go to Caymus Vineyards in Rutherford, Napa Valley, and Caymus-Suisun Vineyard in Suisun Valley, CA, on unique shore excursions supplied on varied California-based cruises. Princess first launched its standard Winemaker’s Dinner in a personal house impressed by a wine cellar within the eating rooms onboard the Royal Princess in 2013.
