Wendy, last June Tom and I were on the same cruise with Anne & Gary (also Joanna & Tony, Lawrence and Olivia) from Monte Carlo to Dover. It was a "spotlight on wine" cruise and we had such a good time. We had a private guide for 2 days in Bordeaux visiting wineries & vineyards (including Chateau Lafit-Rothchild and Lynch Bages). If you need a guide recommendation for Bordeaux or Lisbon, I will try to find the ones we used...they were great.
