Kinda like open bars you can sample stuff to expand your horizons. My girlfriend who has zero problems with drinking any kind of alc spit it out she thought it was so vile...
Totally agree on this one..actually..the absolutely best wine proramme in the air and it would be a waste to limit yourself to the Dom. Even their business wines are way better than F wines in LH or BA..the other day i enjoyed a wonderful super Tusacan 2010 Tignanello (going for about 50 €) both in the Business lounge and on board. In the air they often ivest approx. 100€ into their Bordeauxs..I am not aware of any other airline (maybe QR) investing so much. And for the F maximizers: why not order a bottle of Paradis going for 850 USD..so you only have to drink one bottle rather than 6 bottles of Dom))))
