Andes Wines re-launches the organization of Wine Tastings on Cruiselines in LatinAmerica and expands to Europe

With more than a decade of experience hosting Chilean and Argentine wine tastings aboard the National Geographic Endeavour and Explorer Expedition Ships – and most recently on the Silver Cloud cruise liner in Chilean Fjords and Patagonia – in Andes Wines, we are expanding the specialised wine tasting services to additional cruise lines across Latin America and on a worldwide basis, considering also European Market.

This expansion, driven by growing demand from onboard guests, will feature wines from other countries as well as continuing with Chilean and Argentinean wines.

The main strenght of Andes Wines is that he gets complimentary wine for the tasting provided by wineries in specific ports, plus, he gives a lecture about the establishment of vineyards in South America since 1551.

New destinations elevate wine tasting experiences

For the 2024-2025 season, the wine tasting provision on board cruise ships of Andes Wines will be focusing on ports such as Ushuaia and Buenos Aires (Argentina), Puerto Montt & Coquimbo in Chile, plus Montevideo (Uruguay) and Puerto Vallarta (Mexico) as new future destinations with a special focus on the latter where Max Morales lived for over a year.

In the case of the port of Cartagena in Colombia, Andes Wines has already started the forge local alliances.

The initiative aims to establish a specialist service offering of themed Chilean and Argentine wine tastings for passengers cruising both the Pacific and the Atlantic.

With a strong focus on Wines from Around the World, Andes Wines is looking to establish collaborations with brands that are currently distributed in South and Central America, geared towards a series of tastings to evaluate the wines for inclusion in upcoming cruises.

In the two years prior to the pandemic, he continued his work on the Silver Cloud cruise ship. These tastings spanned a range of stunning locations from Callao in Peru to Punta Arenas in Chile.
