We are excited to bring you a cruise offering from Frey Vineyards and Natural Merchants.

In previous years when it came to searching for (and finding) high quality organic wines , you were pretty much out of luck.  Thankfully, along came Frey Vineyards – America’s first organic & Biodynamic winery.  Founded in 1980, Frey Vineyards is overseen by Jonathan & Katrina Frey.  This third generation, family-owned and operated winery  combine the best of modern and traditional winemaking methods to showcase their quality and award-winning vegan, gluten free wines without adding sulfites which can cause adverse allergic reactions in some people.

Adding to this Mediterranean cruise theme of organic wines, Frey Vineyards has teamed up with the leading importer of high-quality natural wines – Natural Merchants. Partners, Ed & Pilar, search  the globe for the finest organic grown wines, Biodynamic and vegan wines from the Europe and South America, bringing them to the states for all to enjoy.

You’re invited to meet, sail, and raise an organic glass of wine with Frey Vineyards & Natural Merchants aboard Oceania Cruises’ Nautica as they sail icon ports throughout Italy, Croatia, Montenegro, Albania and Greece.
