SUNDAYS OF WINE & CULTURE

The Casual Elegance of Wind, Wine, Water and Chat!



Frederick Wildman and Sons, importers and merchants of fine wines, and Berlitz Languages Inc., the world's premier language provider, have joined forces for Shearwater's intimate wine tasting series under the guidance of Felicia Sherbert, award-winning author of The Unofficial Guide to Selecting Wines. The series is a laid-back tasting and sailing program accompanied by cheese or other nibbles specially paired to that week's selected theme aboard our 82-foot Gatsby-Era yacht.

"Enjoy a breathtaking sail, educate the palate!"

"Sundays of Wine and Culture" Cruises are limited to only 48 passengers so don't miss this unique opportunity to experience fabulous wine and international & wine-related chitchat while sailing the New York Harbor. The cost is $95 per person (all inclusive). For tickets, group rates, directions and boarding instructions call us at: 212-619-0885.
