We evidently do not .... otherwise how could a claim for compensation be raised and even entertained when the OP was NOT SPRINKLED by the wine? Absolutely nothing happened by any of the usual FT metrics.
In this instance, I'm sure it was unpleasant...
I hate wine. Don't like the smell, let alone the taste of it. On a SIN-PVG flight a young FA mauevered around with the bottle and soaked the most part of the bottles content into the coach seat next to me. It smelled intensely for say 5 minutes. Then the low pressure, the dry air, and the very volatile nature of alcohol did its job only a huge dark purple stain remained. It stayed humid for the duration of the flight though. I took it as free seat blocking.
