FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., June 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Princess Cruises is once again raising a glass to excellence, as all 16 ships in its fleet have earned the prestigious Wine Spectator Award of Excellence in the publication's 2025 Restaurant Awards. Now a two-time winner, 15 Princess main dining rooms were recognized, alongside the Sanctuary Collection restaurant on Sun Princess, more than any other cruise line.

Presented annually by Wine Spectator magazine, the Awards of Excellence spotlight restaurants—including those on cruise lines—that offer thoughtfully curated wine selections paired with quality cuisine. This year's winners include just over 2,000 establishments worldwide, with Princess Cruises standing out as the only cruise line to receive 16 awards across its fleet.

"At Princess, we believe a well-curated wine list isn't just about variety – it's about enhancing flavor 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' wine program features more than 250 labels from top wine regions, including France, Italy, Argentina, and New Zealand, as well as emerging producers that harvest biodynamic, organic, vegan, and sustainable wines, along with a dedicated section celebrating women winemakers. The lists are designed to appeal to a range of palates—from casual sippers to serious connoisseurs—and include detailed descriptions to help guests easily navigate options by flavor profile and style.

Additionally, Princess' Love Lines Premium Liquors Collection offers guests exclusive, expertly curated wines and spirits crafted by globally recognized personalities. Celebrity wines include Taraji P. Henson's beloved Moscato, Seven Daughters; Melorosa Sauvignon Blanc and Red Blend by Jason Aldean; Love Prosecco by Romero Britto; and Kylie Minogue's No Alcohol Sparkling Rosé.
