Rare Vineyard View Posted August 8, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I know this has been on the forums before,however neither myTA nor I can locate an up to date wine list. Wondering if someone has the link or the listing? I am wanting to do some homework - buy HAL wine or research wines available in Athens to bring on board! Thank you!

SJSULIBRARIAN Posted August 9, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Check http://www.halfacts.com for the wine list of the Nieuw Amsterdam 2014. You will have to increase the size to read it but it should tell you what is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Vineyard View Posted August 9, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Got it - thank you very much. I just told DH that we would be wine shopping in port and paying the corkage fee. Not always, but often. Good to know ahead of time. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare POA1 Posted August 9, 2014 #7 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Awesome!!! Thanks much!!! Need to do some homework on good reds to buy in Greece!! A couple of questions first - What reds do you normally like? In which ports are you expecting to buy wine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vineyard View Posted August 9, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted August 9, 2014 POA1 - We love big full bodied - Cabs, Barolo, Brunello, Bordeaux, Chianti.....and a good Pinot is always nice! We have lived in wine country 35 years.....when we moved here Boon's Farm was the palette......fortunately and sometimes unfortunately our taste has changed! The port where we will have the most time is Athens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillsprint Posted August 9, 2014 #9 Share Posted August 9, 2014 There must be some changes, as I have looked at some of the wine in the current packages, when you go into, Indulgences/ Beverages in your Reservation and they are not listed in the PDF link above. Is there an alternative listing for the wine packages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there an alternative listing for the wine packages? HAL has not updated their On Line Wine listings. Crew News scanned the actual Wine List, as well as all of his other List/menus while aboard Westerdam less than 1 month ago. Joanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted August 10, 2014 #11 Share Posted August 10, 2014 There must be some changes, as I have looked at some of the wine in the current packages, when you go into, Indulgences/ Beverages in your Reservation and they are not listed in the PDF link above. Is there an alternative listing for the wine packages? you can compare it to the one on HALfacts.com if you like. I suspect they will be identical. when you pre-order there are other options I believe but I could be wrong. I know when we pre-ordered a certain bottle of wine it was not available on the ship unless you put in a special request. What we had ordered was in our room. hope this helps:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there an alternative listing for the wine packages? The list on the website didn't match what we had in March. When I last checked the HAL site, it was still the old list. The list Joanie posted about is newer than mine by several months, so it's a better choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Vineyard View Posted August 10, 2014 Author #14 Share Posted August 10, 2014 You are pretty amazing POA1 in your helpfulness. My DH and I both appreciate your assistance. On another note, the wine carrier you shares a link to a ways back at Amazon - does the internal spacing section fold flat to put into suitcase? Thanks again!!

cruising_family Posted August 10, 2014 #15 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Just wondering if the wine list is pretty much the same for all the HAL ships or if there are different lists for different ships for some reason. Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
