RE: Wine/Champagne

[ClarabelleCow]

I know they offer the wine package on the 3 night wonder, we didn't do it last trip, but can you do it and get 3 of the same bottles? I really liked the Champagne/Sparkling Wine, I think it is Iron Horse or something, could drink that with every meal!

 

[mom_rules]

Can't see why not-it is your choice of 3.

The name of the champagne is Fairy Tale Cuvee and it is bottled by Iron Horse specifically for Disney.

And yes, you can get three, five, or even seven of the same bottle of wine, if you like. And I agree, I could drink it with every meal too!!!

I never had a taste for Champagne until I started driking Vueve Cliquet while in St. Maarten, the Rose is awsome with a meal. Then DH brought home a bottle of Dom to celebrate something with work, it was awsome! We had a bottle of iron horse on our last cruise and really liked it, I was going to bring some Vueve Cliquet or get a bottle or two in Nassau, but maybe we will just stick with the Iron horse for dinner!!

I was never a big fan of champagne either until we tried Perrier Jouet on our last cruise. Now I completely understand why people rave about good champagne.

The Fairy Tale Cuvee was pretty good too, but DH and I much preferred the Perrier Jouet. I wish I was drinking it right now!

Well, the Veuve Cliquot is a much better beverage, I must admit. Of course, it is actual Champagne and not sparkling wine, as it the Fairy Tale.

All in all though, the Fairy Tale is probably the best U.S. "champagne" I've ever tasted.

We have had a Bon Voyage package for our stateroom on embarkation since our second DCL cruise. Gets the trip off to a good start. Had the Fairy Tale Cuvee last month. Should probably upgrade the Korbel to Fairy Tale for the next one (I booked the April Magic cruise before the January Wonder cruise). DS likes the chocolate covered strawberries.

Would you know which is included in the REAS pkg?

Good question, I hope it's the Fairy Tale Cuvee.

We did REAS in October and the champagne that came with the package was Korbel.

We did have a bottle of the Fairy Tale Cuvee sent to the room as a gift and it was quite tasty. If you're going to be at WDW before the cruise you can buy a bottle there for less than you would pay on the ship.

Where do you find this Wine Package... on the DCL Gift page or once you board the Ship?

 

[chrisn]

If things haven't changed since last time I cruised, they will have a table setup on the ship. You will see it upon boarding in the atrium someplace. You can sign up for the wine package at that time.

Where can you buy teh Fairtale champagne in Disney please and is it worth paying the extra for it rather than the Korbel.

Want to have tsome sent ot our room before we cruise - any advice would be appreciated.

I can't help with getting it to your room. I remember seeing the Fairy Tale at one oif the shops on the Boardwalk. You may want to call the WDW Merch MailOrder line. They can tell you where any type of WDW merch. is located Here is the number: 407-363-6200.

Will try to get to the boardwalk as we have a week in Orlando before our cruise but wonder if the Fairy Tale Cuvee is dry or medium as both our daughters prefer the sweeter like the Asti but I just like the name of Fairy Tale sounds too good to be true.

The Fairy Tale Cuvee is not a sweet champagne - I thought it was a bit too dry, personally, but then we all have different tastes. It was still enjoyable, but I can tell you that we won't order it again - once was plenty. We'll stick with the Perrier Jouet!

 

[Skallywag]

May thanks for that it would probably suit me but will stick with the Asti for daughters. Want to order for our stateroom celebration pack.
