Delta Air Lines has introduced a new wine menu exclusively for BusinessElite passengers on routes between London (LHR) and the United States. The selection features two red and two white wines carefully chosen by Delta’s master sommelier Andrea Robinson from notable and long-established wineries in France, Italy and California.
The current selection of white wines includes G de Château Guiraud, Bordeaux, France, 2013; and Beni di Batasiolo Langhe Chardonnay, Serbato, Italy, 2013. Selected red wines are Decoy Pinot Noir, Sonoma County, Calif., 2012; and Château Cantemerle, Bordeaux, France, 2011.
“Customers on Delta’s London routes appreciate fine wines and I’ve selected two of my favorites from the Bordeaux region and two sensational wines from Italy and California to start our exclusive wine program in style,” said Robinson. “We select wines that hold up well at 30,000 feet, so that you can be sure they’ll taste as great in air as they do at the château.”
The selection process for Delta’s BusinessElite wines is part of a rigorous annual evaluation during which Robinson evaluates more than 1,600 wine submissions from around the world.
