    That's quite a selection, you have some sweet on both lists! It looks like they are trying to pair with meals.

    If you are drinking just to have sweet, you might not want to go with the package, and just order at the table... BUT... if you want to experiment with your food and wine I would choose #1.

    Only because it's less expensive and it might give you a variety of things matched with certain foods (if that's the plan)

    It is amazing how perfectly matched wines enhance certain foods and foods enhance wines.

    Deep reds, pinot, ports etc. They blend very nicely and not all are sweet. I would have fun, buy the package and experiment. You could always say that you don't care for it and order something sweet.

    But, Hey! It's vacation! Or go for the Tequila package!:D
