Wine list (business) - November 2015

Hi, I had a great wine on my flight to Cape Town last month on AF, but forgot to take a picture of the menu.

I had asked the crew on my flight back (yesterday), but the wine menu had changed.... Does anyone know what red wine options were in business class last month (November, 2015)? Or have a scan of the wine menu?

All I remember is that it was a grand vin and a red wine... (I am not a wine expert... really a novice as you can tell).

Thanks in advance for your help!

Why don't you write to customer service or post on facebook or twitter, I'm sure they will be able to find out for you!

There is a trip report on AF J last month that has a photo of the wine menu. Not sure if that is the same as the OP's flight though.

I'll be flying that route early April and normally the wine list should stay the same. I'll check it out for you.

I sincerely apologize for not having replied. Especially because I've sort of promised! I hope you did enjoy the choice of wines nonetheless.

For what's worth it. I had a nice Chablis Domaine Saint Claire (Bourgone) with the starter. I enjoyed the not spectacular but decent Chateau Preulliac (Bordeau-Medoc). I didn't take the Langedoq. It seemed to be a pretty chewy wine to me!

As always, the wines in J with AF are never spectacular. But I have the impression they've got their act better together than a few years ago...

Despite my failure to reply, it would be cool to hear your experiences as well
