Ahhh the joys of the BOM check-in and security escort.
I'd arrived before check-in opened and once they knew I was in club was escorted throughout until the lounge. At the gate tensa barriers are used to make a VERY separate Priority boarding line, and even a staff member on the airbridge to ensure First and Club board from Door 1.
I'd personally rate good priority handling as more important than decent wine and champagne... and I like my drink!
