Duckhorn Vineyards 2013 Wine Cruise

Overview

Greetings, members and friends,

I am thrilled to invite you to a seven-night luxurious food and wine journey along the Italian Riviera featuring handpicked wines from our Duckhorn portfolio. Also joining us will be Margaret Duckhorn, our illustrious co-founder. Next summer, the 694-passenger Azamara cruise ship Journey, recently rated by the 2012 Cruise Critic reader’s poll as the “Best” ship, will be our craft. I’d like you to join me.

As you might expect, this experience is centered on the rich food and wine traditions that Italy offers. We’ll be adding the Napa Valley flair. This will truly be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and we’re excited to share it with you. We’ll be hosting an on-board wine program, including a welcome reception and in-depth tastings along the way – including vertical and appellation-focused tastings. I’ll also be hosting a multi-course winemaker dinner to top it off, featuring the Duckhorn Vineyards The Discussion, Goldeneye Ten Degrees and Paraduxx Winemaker Series. It’s surely going to be a memorable experience.

And so, I look forward to seeing you next summer aboard the Journey.

Cheers,

Bill Nancarrow
Executive Winemaker
Duckhorn Wine Company
