I managed a mere two on the short hop over the channel. Heading back to LHR this morning and then got 11 hour flight to Mexico to 'take advantage'

Back in T5 GF today to find a really different selection of old world wines. A lovely Sancerre Les Cotes 2017 from Roblin and an even better Chateau Bellefont-Belcier 2011 which is drinking really well now. Has quite made my afternoon

If anyone likes a glass of rosé without bubbles, then head to the Flounge. My late hubby used to tell me I was the only person he knew that liked rosé, so this may not be relevant to most. There is a pop up promoting a Sky TV series called Riviera. The guest wine alongside is Whispering Angel. They serve this brand of rosé at The Ivy, if anyone uses that chain. It's going down well in the sunshine.

Just coming on to this thread to make some observations. Mrs OB is a great lover of dry rosé, and I am not impartial myself, especially during the warmer months. I am slightly dismayed to see, from these post, none available in either CCR or onboard in F.
I know there is, in some quarters, a snobbery about rosé, but I do not subscribe to this and there are many who would agree.
I am hoping to do my first First next year; what options will we have on the ground and in the air? I presume onboard BA will happily fetch a rosé from another cabin... on the ground I guess we'll have to head for GF? Or would they bring a bottle over?
More sustainably, is there any way of influencing BA to include this in their offering?
