American Business Traveller magazine has once again judged airline wines. The Finnair champagne “Laurent Perrier Grand Siècle Brut Millésime 1990, which is served in Business Class on long haul flights, was awarded the most points by the judges in the champagne category. Wines were judged in
three categories: red wines, white wines and sparkling wines.

In the tasting held in New York City, the 35 member judging panel assessed the quality of airline wine cellars for the fourteenth time and tasted over 250 wines. This year the “Best Cellar in the Sky” award went to Korean Air, whose wine list is 100 percent French.
