Well, this thread puts a new spin on my old complaint that in BF Continental may advertise interesting wines (sometimes) but the FA’s have no idea what they are.

I fly MAD – EWR, and we often have a good Torres or other Penedes on board but you would never know it. You mostly get the standard: “Red or White?" and when you ask what they have, the answer is a puzzled look with these really helpful details: “I think the white is French, and the red is a Shiraz from Australia.”

Aren’t they supposed to offer at least two reds and two whites???

If the staff can’t or won’t learn about the wines, CO should at least print a listing of what is on offer in the menu.
