I have to agree with you JL87. We were on the EQ last month and had a couple glasses of Caymus and I wasn't all that impressed. I do like full bodied reds, cab savs, burgundy. With that said, what is a good full bodied red from the wine list on X.
Give the Opulence Cabernet a try. It is made by Grgich Hills for Celebrity as a private label wine. Sold by the glass and bottle. It was the best red wine by the glass I found on my last cruise on X in August.

On the Edge this fall the best Red wine by the glass was Opulence Cabernet. I hope they have it on my up coming Nov. Equinox sailing.

About the same capacity on my Sept 11th Edge sailing. My question is , are they even breaking even with 850 passengers? I like the low crowds but I do want them to stay in business.

We sailed on the Edge Sept 11th. I was told the ship sailed with 880 passengers. Also later in the week a crew member remarked that the next week was going to be even lighter at around 700 passengers.

No restrictions at all regarding what or how many of each thing you can order. We were in an Edge Villa in December 2019 and had a great time trying all of the specialty restaurants on board.
Thank you for the reply! I hope they are still running things this way in Sept.

My wife and I are in a Edge villa in Sept. Does anyone have experience using the unlimited specialty dining benefit in Raw on 5? Are there any restrictions as to items or numbers of items etc?
Where to find fancy wine on S-class, now that Cellar Masters is disappearing?

I can't remember the vintage of the Opulence cab. I only had it by the glass.( many glasses admittedly) It was $25 so I paid 10 with the premium package. I had this most nights with my meat or robust pasta dishes. It is full deep red with very good balance of fruit, acid and tannin. It didn't need more than 30 minutes to open up. I find standard Caymus cab a little too sweet and overly plush, without enough balancing acid for my taste. I enjoyed the Selbach riesling and Opulence chard as well. I had a sauvignon blanc and a pinot gris that were pleasant as well, just don't remember the brands.
