2 other interesting points -
1. discovered I was OW Emerald, which meant I could use a separate first class section of the QF lounge in AKL - it felt more crowded than the other area though!
2. Guy behind me in Y - must have been a platinum 1.. was asked for drink preferences on take off and given a standard/full bottle of red near the end of the flight!
That's quite an interesting way to discover you're OWE! Would have been a lot more useful flying in the other direction, as at least ex-SYD or MEL you could use the F lounge, which by all accounts really IS actually quite special (I've never had the pleasure, sadly).

Re the free wine... if it's what was served in coach I can't imagine a high-flying P1 being all that interested in it. Though QF's business class wines are usually respectable so maybe it was that.
