The wine per se is not bad, I am certainly not against it featuring, but this display I personally find has zero design harmony to the rest of the lounge, putting it mildly.
Indeed it is pink with that font/flower arrangement. However if one has a look at other Whispering Angel bars around (I Googled a few) then they all look very similar. It’s all part of the brand styling and I’m guessing that part of the agreement was that BA adopt the brand styling if they want to have a specific section in the lounge.

It looks exactly like the Whispering Angel Terrace in the Sky Garden in London. That is also pink and festooned with flowers and a ‘tacky’ font.

It’s almost as if Whispering Angel have that ‘tacky’ font on their bottles….
