Introduction

While wine is literally a religious experience for some and considered one of life’s great pleasures to many others, I consider it the beverage equivalent to sour gym socks. I occasionally consume it to avoid making a scene at a social function, but the pained expression on my face and the multiple packs of Sweet ‘n Low I stir in tend to unmask my true feelings.

To my wine loving readers: Forgive me and read on – this post is for YOU! (For my fellow wine-haters, I offer a high five and a chocolate martini! Now go find something better to do.)

Caymus Vineyards Winemaker Dinner

Earlier this month Princess announced a new speciality dining opportunity available to guests: the Caymus Vineyards Winemaker Dinner. A press release from the line described the new offering as follows:

The new Winemaker Dinner leverages the expansive expertise of Chuck Wagner, owner and winemaker of the renowned Napa Valley’s Caymus Vineyards, to deliver a five-course menu, crafted to complement the tasting notes of his wines.

Sami Kohen, Princess vice president of food and beverage, went on to say:

Our new Caymus Vineyards Winemaker Dinner further elevates the Princess culinary experience and wonderfully showcases the elegance of cruising. Our passionate culinary team and Chuck have curated what promises to deliver a deliciously memorable and tantalizing experience that will have our guests talking long after the last course and glass of wine are served.

Here’s the menu:
