Overview

We are excited to announce the second Williams Selyem hosted wine cruise with Food & Wine Trails.  Fresh off a June 2026 cruise from Lisbon to Dublin aboard Ritz-Carlton Yachts, Williams Selyem has set their sights in 2027 to something a little closer to home, and who can resist Alaska!

Join Director of Winemaking, Jeff Mangahas, aboard Luminara from Vancouver, sailing north into Alaska’s wilderness where each destination tells a different story.  In Klawock, Alaska’s first cannery reveals the history of early settlers, while Wrangell’s Petroglyph Beach State Historic Site preserves rock carving dating back thousands of years.  Trace the path of Russian explorers in Sitka and search for migrating whales near Icy Strait Point.  Sailing through glacier-edged channels with a glass of Williams Selyem wine in your hand is the perfect finale before concluding in Whittier.
