Not saying that these are not drinkable. But compared with other routes, I do not find these offers to be outstanding. I am for example also on flights to DUS and from HAM. They have much better offers, but unfortunately I do not sit in the right cabin class on those flights.

Where does Belvedere fit in this pecking order? It should be on board all flights by now I would think.

1985 Ducru in the J (B) lounge near the Champagne bar. Not sure how much they have left but two partials open, come and get it!
https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...3714a83fa6.jpg Doubly wonderful since it's the last wine I've tasted since moving to a dry country.... don't they usually hand out coins for going this long without a tipples? |

This was still here back on March 4th - one partial open and left on the bar. Enough for a small glass for Mrs. Dirty and myself. It was wonderful.

I've got really poor options coming my way in J and F on ULH routes this month. In J only one red (M. Chapoutier Domaine Tournon Shay's Flat Shiraz 2014). What is going on?

I remember my first EK J flight, it was Langoa Barton 2007... and that stuck around for a while over a few months. Stunning wine - I think 2007 was a seriously underrated year for Bordeaux. I bought a bottle with my own money recently and had it at a Brazilian steakhouse. Lamb chops + bordeaux = omg. |

In other news, had me some fun at the champagne bar the last time I was there. Yes, it's not Dom, and it's certainly not P2, but for us plebs it's not too shabby...
