IN THE NEWS
If you love wine and love to cruise there's nothing like touring some of the most beautiful wine regions of the world, plus sailing to many of the world's most exciting destinations. Altogether know as a "food & wine cruise", this form of vacation travel is attracting more and more travelers.

''We love wine and we love Europe,'' ''We had a wine event almost every day, and a wine dinner with pairings,'' On a seven-night Windstar cruise in the Mediterranean. The itinerary took them to ports in Spain, France and Italy, where they visited the famous the Tuscan wine region of Bolgheri. There, they lunched at and toured local  wineries, many thought of highly by Wine Spectator magazine.

On a food & wine cruise you can get access to wineries not usually visited, and to wines not usually served. Even wineries host wine cruises like Robert Mondavi and Beringer, but many lesser known but respected boutique vintners, also host these cruises.

Most ''food and wine cruises'' are actually regular sailings with a wine affinity group aboard that has paid extra for special food & wine-oriented events. These may include private tastings, educational talks, parties, winemaker lunches or dinners, and excursions to wineries and vineyards ashore. Often, such groups will get to taste the host winemaker's ''library selections,''
especially good wines held back from regular sale.

''On a food and wine cruise you get all the benefits of cruising, plus visits to wineries and lots of wine tastings. It's doesn't get any better than that for wine enthusiasts" said Marty Trencher of Vintages cruises. Vintages specializes in food & wine cruise travel.

Typically, a wine group's price will include onboard wine events, with wine-related excursions ashore. A wine cruise may feature one or more winemakers, who bring their own wines aboard for tastings and seminars.

On a recent food & wine event onboard an Oceania Cruise that visited Spain, France and Italy, there were tastings of varying vintages from these regions.


Wine cruises are social events, because they bring together a group of people with similar interests. Some folks don't even bother to take a bottle or two they collected ashore home, they just have it for dinner that evening in the ship's dining room.

Who's likely to go on a food and wine cruise?

Those who have a passion for wine tend to be more affluent, so, most wine cruises take place aboard upscale cruise ships. The Mediterranean, where wine was first produced, is the most popular region for wine cruises. Passengers, tend to be 45 to 65 years old, and many, nearly 50%, have never cruised before.

Not only are large, luxury liners offering wine cruises, but smaller more intimate ships as well. Small ships such as Oceania's Regatta and Nautica; Princess' Ocean Princess and Royal Princess; and Azamara's Quest have less than 700 passengers onboard. River boats offer wine cruises on European waterways like the Danube and the canals of France, or on such American rivers as the Columbia and the Napa.

Silversea Cruises will offer 11 Wine Series voyages this year that include special tastings, events and lectures conducted by wine professionals. Some cruise line wine events may simply offer a shore excursion to a vineyard and perhaps one wine expert onboard. Not exactly a full-fledged, itinerary - filled wine cruise, but educational nonetheless.

Wine events such as tastings and vineyard visits can be found many cruise ships these days. You will also find wine bars, and on the Celebrity Solstice an elegant wine tasting room.
