Welcome to FT.

Here is the thread for International Business Class Meals. I checked the most recent 10 pages of posts and did not see a copy of the liquor menu nor did anyone list it in their meal posts.

Austria would be an odd choice for reds - are you sure that isn't Australia (or keeping the current Austrian white and adding a Portuguese red)?

Love that there are no vintages on the wines...

So lame! I am sure that these are $8-12 Costco wines at best...

Most if not all the wines have the vintage on the label - however you are correct that any decent wine list should include that information.

Costco doesn't sell wine in Canada but if these wines were sold by Costco in the US most of them (other than the Champagne) would likely be in the price range you suggest.

Not at all. Enjoyed some very fine Blaufrankisch & Zweigelt Reds several months back on Austrian Airlines. Austrian Reds are a good pairing for Beef, Veal & Pasta. I think the real wild card here is the Portuguese White.

Australia is out - Austria is in.
(At least for July)

I had to google "LCBO" since I figured that was some online abbreviation my kids haven't taught me yet...

Seriously though, I expect some better wines in J. Even DLs are better (and they are "coiffable but far from transcendent").

Try flying EK, EY, QR, or SQ - Real wines are served on these carriers!

Thanks for sharing!

Is the red from Argentina a Malbec or something exotic?
