The Lanson Noble Cuvee Brut Millesime 1999 served on Jet Airways
has netted the airline a prestigious drinks award.
India's premier airline picked up the award for Best Airline in
the Champagne and Sparkling Wine category at the
Sixth Annual Wines on the Wings International Business Class
Airline Wine competition.
Thirty expert judges, including wine retailers and sommeliers,
participated in the blind tasting of 115 wines as part of the
competition.
The quality of Jet's bubbly also won it a place among the top
ten participants in the competition's 'overall' category.
Jet Airways chief commercial officer Sudheer Raghavan explained
that the airline was "proud and honoured" to have achieved the
award.
He added: "Jet Airways is committed to delivering truly world
class service and has worked to continuously enhance the excellent
in-flight services with gourmet foods and world class wines.
"The 'Best Airline - Champagne/Sparkling Wine' award is testimony
to our commitment to enhance the Jet Airways experience for our
customers."
Earlier this month, ten bottles of fake Bollinger Champagne were seized from a trader in
Locksbottom, after a tip-off revealed they were fake.
