Depends.. Flew on Y on 10th September DEL-DXB-LGW

Was served from a large bottle on one sector and in a Mini bottle on the second.(They removed the cap before giving me the bottle )

I think it was the mini bottle ex DEL and from larger bottle ex DXB .

I wondered if it was because very few people had wine on that sector?

Thank you for your replies, Prefer the small bottles since you can drink it when you want and with a glass, you end up drinking it and i don't like requesting drinks.

BTW, I used to be a gold member for 4 years., thats when you got decent points

Problem is that they remove the cap before they serve you. Not sure if they are willing to give the cap as I haven't asked.

Inconvenient too if your red wine is 4 degrees C. I used to get a couple and put them down the side of my chair to heat up.
