Danke! (Muss ja auch mal gesagt werden, diverse andere Individualitäten hier fehlt dise Einsicht nämlich oft :wink: )
Sie geben sich weiterhin viel Muehe: Am 11.2. EK 050 MUC-DXB in F: Weiterhin Dom Perignon 2002 Aber 2 deutsche Rieslinge: Lorcher Schlossberg Alte Reben 2010 von August Kesseler Dreissigacker Geyersberg 2009 und dazu einen Puligny Montrachet 2008 Henri Boillot Als Rote: Lynch Bages Pauillac 2000 (gerade trinkreif, super auch in der Luft) Charmes Chambertin 2000 Taypenot Merme Und einen Rieussec 2003 als Dessertwein Als Port Grahams Vintage 1991 Die Puserette hatte echt Ahnung, bei einer Englaenderin nachvollziebar.
Will noch mal eine Lanze für EK brechen, wenngleich da natürlich auch nicht alles Gold ist, was glänzt: Hatte hier ja unter dem 11.2. gepostet, dass es in F einen Lynch Bages aus 2000 gab, superb. Mein Bruder ist letzte Woche in F Langstrecke mit der Airline des "Mutterlandes" des Cabernet Sauvignon geflogen, AF. Dort wurde in F auch ein Lynch Bages angeboten, aber Jahrgang 2007(!), also eigentlich noch gar nicht genießbar. Mein Bruder hat dann nach einem Bordeaux aus C gefragt: Chateau de Carmensac, auch 2007. Fazit: EK gibt sich viel mehr Mühe als selbst AF (und viele andere Airlines) mit der Auswahl (bzw. der Trinkfertigkeit) der Weine.
Hallo Homer, anbei auch ein paar Weinlisten in C & F C 055/056 DEC 2011 WHITE Pouilly Fuisse 2009 Chanson Pete et Fils One of Burgund‘s oldest companies, Chanson Pete et Fils is now owned bu Champagne house Bollinger. Their Pouilly Fuisse intrigues with fragrances of white flower, white peach and Olive. Full bodied, displauing delicate oak with a well balanced acidity and minerality. Zevenwacht Sauvignon Blanc 2010 The South African Sauvignon is a fusion between French and New Zealand str/les. It packs the punch of the Kiwi wines while maintaining the all important minerality that gives Sauvignon its delicious vlvacity. The grapes for this blend are sourced from the south facing slopes, overlooking False Ba\/. The nose offers a complex fruit concoction of gooseberries, grass, herbs and a touch of ripe figs. The palate is crisp and mineral with a long finish. RED Amiral de Beychevelle 2005 St Julien Second wine of the much revered Chateau Beychevelle. The name refers to the loth owner of Beychevelle, the Duc d`Esperon and Admiral of France. Nose of soft dark berries, crushed rocks, graphite and a whiff of cigar box. A succulent palate of blackcurrants, boysenberries, notes of spice and a long powerful finish. Excellent with red meat dishes Domalnes des Senechaux 2008 Chateauneuf—du-Pape This excellent domaine was purchased bu Bordeaux legend Jean~Michel Cazes, owner of the much revered Chateau Lunch Bages property. The philosophv at Senechaux is much the same as over at Lvnch Bages — to over deliver in quality vis-a-vis the competitors. The 2008 has a huge and inviting bouquet of black fruits, kirsch, Provencale garrigue, lavender and white pepper. The body is well rounded with a beautiful, silku texture. A perfect match for all red meats and great for sipping on its own. habe ein paar Weinlisten gescannt, und auch nur ein paar mit genommen, wenn ich mal dran gedacht habe. Link hier zum Download. Die letzten Monate hat EK genau meinen Geschmack getroffen. Anstelle einse Moet & Chandon(den ich nicht mag) einen Bollinger Champanger in C, sowie gute französische Weisweine aus dem Burgund wie z.B. Mersault, Pouilly Fuisse & Puilly Fume. https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?ci ... wGtZlXtFLM

It owes this greatness to its marl and chalk soils and south-south easterly exposure.

This is a blend of several premier cru terroirs, producing a wine which combines both mineralitu with a richness of fruit sometimes hard to find in Chablis. The Z009 vintage was warm and gave the wines of Chablis just a little more sunshine and creaminess than found in more classic vintages.

The palate is generous, opulent and round with butter, honey, hazel nuts and a deep rooted mineralitv which perfectlv balances the richness. Livio Felluga Pinot Grigio 2010 Allow us to first clarify one point - this is not t/our average, light and inoffensive Pinot Grigio.

Danke für die Info's. Hört sich wieder recht gut an. Der Pouilly Fuisse und der St. Georges sind aber so gerade trinkreif, könnten beide gut noch ein bis 2 Jahre Reife vertragen. Ich hoffe nur, dass EK den guten Stil beibehält, nur wirklich trinkreife Weine (mit natürlich höheren Lagerkosten) anzubieten, um sich diesbezüglich weiterhin von anderen Airlines abzugrenzen.
Habe beide probiert( Pouilly Fuisse & St. Gorges) waren gut trinkbar. Auch der St.Georges mundete gut
Vielleicht, wie so oft mit dem Geschmackssinn, in der Luft anders als auf dem Boden. Auf jeden Fall ist es schön, dass EK sich bei den Weinen so bemüht.
