Who took the accolades in our annual airline wine awards? Sara Turner reveals all
Representing the best in-flight wines served last year, Cellars in the Sky rewards the airlines’ wine choices in business and first class. After months of organisation, more than 220 bottles were intensively blind tasted over two days.
Our five judges were Charles Metcalfe, TV wine presenter and co-chairman of the International Wine Challenge; Joanna Simon, co-founder of the Wine Gang (thewinegang.com), author, and wine and food editor for House and Garden magazine; Sam Harrop, Master of Wine and winemaking consultant; Derek Smedley, Master of Wine for more than 40 years, consultant and co-chairman of the International Wine Challenge; and Tim Atkin, Master of Wine, wine columnist for The Observer, co-chairman of the International Wine Challenge and co-founder of the Wine Gang.
An awards ceremony was held on February 9 at the Business Travel and Meetings Show at London’s Earls Court, where the winning airlines were presented with their trophies by Charles Metcalfe. The Business Traveller team followed up with a special tasting of the winning wines for attendees of our stand at the show.
