Which routes?

I have LGW DXB on Saturday

Then HKG 26-29 Aug

Then MAN and to PEK in Sept.

In all seriousness that is the best champagne I've ever had - I also think its about 300 pounds a bottle

Let me know what the wine list is like on your LGW - and if 2003 Pomeral is still there

I've got an LGW-DXB in F in early Sept and looking forward to a bottle. Oh, and also the DP!

Apparently HND/NRT is a definite and they'll roll it around "European" routes from mid-August. I will task some little birdies to find out!

I think the d'Yquem 2005 currently on Europe/Asia edges out the P2 1998 in terms of dollars per ml
