Food & Wine Trails welcomes Bennett Lane Winery in 2021!

Among the many stellar wine offerings from Bennett Lane Winery, owners Lisa & Randy Lynch’s Maximus wine, pays homage to the Roman Emperor Magnus Maximus, a notorious wine lover.  We couldn’t think of a more fitting cruise than Oceania’s opulent ship Riviera departing out of Rome as Bennett Lane’s inaugural wine cruise!

Join Lisa, Randy, and general manager Stefanie, for ten days through Mediterranean vistas that offer the perfect combination of old world beauty and modern charisma.  In all, you’ll visit five countries – Italy, Malta, France, Monaco & Spain – with an itinerary curated to showcase both marquee destinations and smaller boutique ports.

With over 60 vintages earning ratings of 90+ from top wine publications such as Wine Enthusiasts, Wine Spectator and Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, you are in for a treat!  Guests of Bennett Lane Winery  will have the opportunity to sample some of their hand-selected vintages during hosted onboard events including receptions, informative and fun seminars, tastings and a very special wine-paired dinner in one of the ship’s specialty restaurants.
