In 2004, Keith Powell began a quest to know, understand and appreciate boutique wines.  A self-proclaimed wine aficionado with a mission to "de-snob" wines, this has been a comprehensive and fun venture.  Recognizing the caliber of these boutique wines and the passion these wine makers have for the wine they produce, Keith decided to start writing a book on award winning, unique boutique wineries and their wine.  This book is on the young vine and when ripe will be produced for all to enjoy!

Keith has an eclectic menu of wines in his personal wine collection.  He knows that in order to achieve his standing dream of sharing these great wines with other wine lovers he would have to establish his presence among these wine makers.  This has made for a noteworthy mapping of wineries visited & to be visited on his journey across the United States.

Meanwhile, with his wife Martha and a team of travel professionals, he decided to step back into the world of travel by organizing a Wine Makers Cruise.  "What better way to expose people to these great wines than to enjoy a leisurely cruise where they can enjoy special wine tastings, wine appreciation sessions and get to know these wine makers one-on-one."

Keith & Martha also are supporters of non-profits that serve the greater community and for every cruise stateroom sold, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

We invite you to come and experience vino at sea!

We have a team of professional and knowledgeable individuals who work with us on all our cruise projects.  We also have access to a contingency of other travel experts available for special assignments.
