Sipping Fine Wine

Had a taste of this wine found in a big box store, aromas of spice with a touch of fruit. Palate was a bit harsh, very tannic. Pass on this one.

While not the best wine, wine taste better at 36,000 feet. As the official wine of KLM I prefer Delta's Wente vineyards better which will be served on the next flight.

Actually quite good: mild, smooth, a tad fruity. Would have it again :-)

Niet slecht. Of ben ik aan boord van een vliegtuig gewoon eerder tevreden? :)
