Oh boy things are really heating up onboard right now for the US flights.

Flew EK 232 yesterday - 2016 Opus may be the best wine I have ever drank, so incredibly smooth . 2006 Angelus was also offered but I really preferred the Opus, especially without any food (which to be honest was terrible out of IAD so I drank my calories). Some may disagree with that, but I find once you reach a certain price point it really comes down to palate, so if the Angelus is in theory a higher end selection the Opus was my winner by a long shot.

FA found one bottle of the 2009 Dom Rose (not on the menu) for me and I drank the whole bottle (Ooops!), also absolutely exceptional.

In the A lounge as i write this and my man scrounged up an open bottle of Angelus, he took his task seriously and was on the case and said has not seen any Opus and the Mouton has not been around for a little bit.

Too much fun for a guy who loves wine.
