NEWS: Celebrity Cruises wins 12 Wine Spectator Restaurant Awards. The awards adds to its nearly decade-long list of accolades. Wine Spectator annually recognizes restaurant wine lists which feature a well-chosen assortment of quality producers along with a thematic match to the menu in both price and style.
For nine consecutive years, Celebrity Cruises has set the standard for onboard wine programs, holding more awards from the world’s leading authority on wine than any other cruise line.
In addition to receiving 10 “Awards of Excellence” for the second consecutive year, Celebrity received two coveted “Best of Awards of Excellence” for its unique wine lists on the brand’s newest ships – Celebrity Apex and Celebrity Edge – making it the only cruise line among a small, elite group of establishments in the world that have received awards for the past nine consecutive years.
All of the main dining room restaurants on ships in Celebrity’s Millennium and Solstice Series received this year’s “Award of Excellence.”
“We’ve taken the utmost care to curate a collection of wines that not only complements the culinary experience for our guests, but is synergistic with the destinations we visit,” said Cornelius Gallagher, vice president of food and beverage for Celebrity Cruises. “The recognition from such a prestigious group is a testament to the details we’ve poured into ensuring we create a special wine experience for our guests.”
