The lot of us enjoy cruises for the destinations visited along their itinerary, however what makes Paul Gauguin Cruises so memorable is the amount of creativity and artisanship that goes into their menus aboard. Sommelier aboard the m/s Paul Gauguin, Eduardo Rosales, gives us his recommendation of what wine to pair with your dish.
