The success of its inaugural wine cruise in partnership with Artémis in April has persuaded the boutique cruise line Ponant to have a second vintage cruise next year.
In partnership with Artémis, Ponant developed a unique itinerary between Lisbon, Portugal, and Lorient, France, with stopovers in some of the finest vineyards in Europe – from the lesser-known Leixoes and Bilbao, to the renowned Bordeaux region.

On board, Ponant will offer exclusive wine menus and wine/food pairings, while VIP guests will entertain the passengers by sharing their love of wine and fine cuisine in an exclusive programme of visits and lectures.
The Vineyards & Grands Crus cruise on Le Soléal will depart Lisbon on 11 April, 2018, to arrive in the Breton port of Lorient nine days later. Price starts from £2,970 (port-to-port, including port taxes), based on double occupancy. It is already available to book.
