Flying EK236 next week and the online wine list looks kind of boring. The only two F reds are the Leoville Poyferre and a Pharaohmoans? Napa blend. Cannot find any information on the Pharaohmoans.
Hoping for the onboard menu to be a little more exciting. |

Maybe I am using a different google. No producer website, no tasting reviews, no one selling it that I can find.
But Pharoah Moans is an easily Google-able product with lots of data.... at least in the US Google world. Nevertheless, its always to fun to try out new wines on EK F...never know until you try is my motto. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...2e149e419d.jpg |

Had the 2008 DP Rose about a week ago from JFK — amazing stuff. Even better than the advertised 2009.
2005 Leoville Poyferre was also enjoyable, although not as much as the Mouton/Angelus/Montrose from the past year. Wonder if it’s select routes only right now? I’ll report back when I’m flying home to JFK next week. Side note, anyone flying out of ORD, get there as late as possible. The LOT lounge is awfully crowded. I took a 1hr walk around the terminal before boarding because it wasn’t worth sitting in a super crowded space. |

No DP Rose on EK236 ORD-DXB today. FA said she hasn’t seen it since the late summer (which is when I remember it last being on offer)

I didn't have the rosé on the return flight to the US either (I asked) so the regular 2015 had to do... It looks like it was a special feature around Valentine's Day so unfortunately that's that.
|
No Rosé on the 76 from CDG and the 358 to CGK I’m currently on I’m afraid.
However, the Paul Jaboulet Aínê Hermitage La Chapelle 2003 is keeping me entertained. Hopping over to the Penfolds RWT 2014 shortly. |
Flying EK at a very quiet time, feels a bit eerie due to obvious reasons.
But staff and crew are absolute professionals. Warm, attentive and going about service as if everything is normal. F check in counters were closed today. Was departing from concourse A. F lounge was closed and J lounge just opened today. PDB is glass of Dom 2015. No p2 etc. Praying that everything here gets back to normal. These guys are absolute champs. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...738858912.jpeg |

I may end up taking my HYD-DXB-JFK tonight since the inbound to HYD is on schedule and today’s DXB-JFK 203 took off, so I’m a bit more confident now. |

Thanks for the update, great to hear. Did they say when the F lounge would reopen? Or if the B F lounge is open?

2006 Chateau Haut Brion flowing freely in B lounge yesterday.
