The Experience: Where Culture, Connection, and Bordeaux Elegance Converge
Noir et Rosé: Bordeaux, Curated for Us
Noir et Rosé is more than a river cruise—it’s Bordeaux reimagined through our lens. With the entire ship exclusively ours, we’ve paired the beauty, wine and history of Bordeaux with a one-of-a-kind onboard experience celebrating culture, connection, music and Black excellence.
By day, we explore. By night, the ship becomes ours.
The Politan Noire Experience
Some of the moments you’ll only experience with us:
- The Josephine Baker Experience at Château des Milandes – A special journey to the beloved French home of the legendary entertainer, activist and icon.
- Cognac & the House of Hennessy – We’re going straight to the source! Explore the historic town of Cognac before visiting Hennessy in its hometown of Cognac, France, where the legendary Maison was founded in 1765. Discover more than 260 years of craftsmanship and history—followed, of course, by a tasting. 🥃
- Our Wine Journey with Lee Campbell – Wine is woven throughout Noir et Rosé, led by James Beard Award-winning sommelier Lee Campbell. Expect curated tastings and lively conversations connecting what’s in our glasses to the vineyards, wines and places we experience throughout Bordeaux—welcoming, social and never stuffy.
- An Intimate Performance by Vinx – An unforgettable evening of music with internationally renowned vocalist and percussionist Vinx, created especially for Noir et Rosé.
- Our Nights Aboard – When the excursions end, we’re just getting started. From Cquer's soulful soundtrack and our Master of Moments keeping things moving to Mystery Game Night, great conversations and plenty of dancing, the entire ship is ours to enjoy.
And Then There’s Bordeaux...
AmaWaterways takes us deeper into the region with experiences including St. Émilion and its wine cellars, Blaye and Bourg, Château de Roquetaillade, a local wine festival, French bread-making, Bordeaux and the Cité du Vin, plus time to discover the charming towns along the river.
This is the beauty of Noir et Rosé: Bordeaux gives us the setting. We create the experience.
Come wine, dine, dance, explore—and experience Bordeaux with us. 🥂
