Finnair serves OKish wines
I know the title is an understatement. According to the Business Traveller magazine AY was awarded the shared bronze medal for the BEST-PRESENTED WINE LIST and the Gold Medal for red wine in Business class: Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir 2012, Marlborough, New Zealand as well as the Silver Medal for red wine in Business class: Nicolas Perrin Crozes-Hermitage 2012, France

Notice there are quite a few categories and many winners. Oneworld carriers, mainly!

Serving top wines in the air seems like a waste of the good stuff - you won't get as much out of it as on the ground. I'd prefer tho have the best wines in the lounges and the "just" good ones in the air.
