Princess Cruises is celebrating another sparkling achievement, with all 16 of its ships recognised in the Wine Spectator 2025 Restaurant Awards — more than any other cruise line globally.

The prestigious Award of Excellence was given to 15 main dining rooms across the Princess fleet, alongside the new Sanctuary Collection restaurant on Sun Princess. The accolade highlights restaurants with well-curated wine selections that complement their cuisine and appeal to a range of tastes.

“At Princess, we believe a well-curated wine list isn’t just about variety – it’s about enhancing flavour and creating harmony at the table,” said Sami Kohen, Vice President of Food and Beverage for Princess Cruises. “This recognition from Wine Spectator reinforces our dedication to offering a wine experience that is rich, diverse, and reflective of the destinations we explore.”

Princess Cruises’ award-winning wine program features over 250 labels spanning France, Italy, Argentina, New Zealand and beyond, with a focus on sustainability and diversity. Guests will find everything from organic and vegan wines to vintages by women winemakers and emerging biodynamic producers. Each list includes tasting notes and style guides to help travellers navigate with confidence.

Further enhancing the guest experience, Princess’ Love Lines Premium Liquors Collection offers exclusive pours from celebrity collaborators such as Taraji P. Henson’s Seven Daughters Moscato, Jason Aldean’s Melorosa wines, Romero Britto’s Love Prosecco, and Kylie Minogue’s no-alcohol Sparkling Rosé.

The full list of Wine Spectator’s 2025 Restaurant Award winners appears in the magazine’s August issue and online at winespectator.com.
