Switzerland, Germany, France, Netherlands
Welcome to your Wine European River Cruise Page!
We celebrate wine and treat our guests to a wonderful selection of regional wines across all of our river cruise itineraries – however, many guests wish to take their passion for wine a bit further. Is there a winery whose bottles dominate your dinner parties? If so, you may be able to travel along with their wine club on one of our exclusive Celebration of Wine River Cruises.
Sip, Savor, and Enjoy
European Wine Immersion Sailings
Join us for an exclusive immersion in the European wine region you are sailing through. Take a deep dive into the local wine culture and enhance your palate while being guided by an expert in European wines who has in-depth knowledge of the region, its history, and the varietals that have made it famous. On select European Wine Immersion sailings, you may even gain insider tips on local culinary delicacies, hidden hotspots for tasting, and restaurants you won’t want to miss.
Epicurean Experiences
Premier Vineyards and Cellar Tours
One of the most delightful aspects of our Wine Cruises is visiting Europe’s unique vineyards and wineries. Whether you’re strolling through France’s 14th-century Château de Montaigne or visiting Austria’s historic and majestic Burg Clam, you’ll taste history every step of the way among storied vines.
Authentic Encounters
Connect with artisans and vintners within the same fields in which their ancestors toiled. Learn how best to pair decadent chocolate with wine; discover how olives transform into the Mediterranean’s prized nectar, olive oil; or be tempted by Austria’s famed Wachau Valley apricots.
Food and Wine Pairing – A Unique Art
Indulge in wine perfectly chosen to meld with the food on your plate and on your palate at an unforgettable dinner designed to heighten the relationship between the two. Rosemary-crusted lamb? A clear match for Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Oysters on the half shell? Try a Loire white.
