Singapore Airlines To Serve Rare Red Burgundy Singapore Airlines To Serve Rare Red Burgundy Variety In Suites and First Class 29 July 2010 From 1 August 2010, Singapore Airlines will feature six of the most acclaimed “Grand Cru” Red Burgundy labels in its wine selection available to Suites and First Class customers. With the introduction, customers on each flight will be able to look forward to a “Grand Cru” Red Burgundy label in addition to the current wine selection. SIA will be the only airline to offer these labels on board. Red Burgundy is a red wine label originating from the French region of Bourgogne and made predominantly with the popular Pinot Noir grape variety. Possessing a reputation for being challenging to cultivate, these Pinot Noir grapes are grown around the world, but those from the region of Bourgogne produce some of the finest wines in the world. The six labels offered by the Airline are classified as “Grand Cru”, a classification that designates a vineyard known for its excellent reputation in producing wine. Said Singapore Airlines’ Senior Vice-President Product and Services, Mr Yap Kim Wah, “We are very pleased to enhance our current wine selection on board, which also includes the popular and renowned Red Bordeaux labels, with the prestigious “Grand Cru” Red Burgundy labels. We are also delighted to be able to obtain six different labels to meet the volume required for all our flights and we hope our customers, both wine connoisseurs and non-wine connoisseurs alike, will take the opportunity to try these the next time they fly with us.” Added Steven Spurrier, one of the Airline’s three wine consultants, “As with our second growth Bordeauxs, the reputation and quality of the Grand Cru Burgundies are pretty much as good as we can get. All six labels would be five stars, without question.” Singapore Airlines’ Suites and First Class customers can also choose from an international selection of beer and liqueurs, as well as alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails. This is in addition to the Airline’s exquisite list of champagne of Dom Pérignon 2000 and Krug Grande Cuvée, and selection of top-quality wines including pourings from France, Italy, Germany, Australia, New Zealand and the United States, as well as port wine from Portugal. Singapore Airlines’ wines are selected by three world-renowned wine experts -- Michael Hill-Smith, Australia's first Master of Wine; Jeannie Cho Lee, the first Asian Master of Wine; and Steven Spurrier, a leading authority and author on wine. Singapore Airlines serves approximately 2.1 million bottles of wine on board every year, across all classes. LIST OF RED BURGUNDY LABELS TO BE INTRODUCED IN SINGAPORE AIRLINES’ SUITES AND FIRST CLASS FROM 1 AUGUST 2010 MAZIS-CHAMBERTIN 2001 DOMAINE FAIVELEY A beautiful wine, ripe and smooth and a very classy palate; has a good deep colour, good solid middle, very impressive ripeness on the nose that shows the purity and depth of a Grand Cru. CLOS VOUGEOT 2004 LOUIS JADOT A fairly substantial wine that is surprisingly open; has a lovely deep ruby colour and intense appealing aromatics of dark berries with a hint of undergrowth and spices; the fruit has good depth and density on the mid-palate with firm but velvety textured tannins. GRIOTTE-CHAMBERTIN 2004 LOUIS JADOT A grand and classy wine with great purity and vineyard origin; has a good deep young colour, liquorice spice and fresh red fruits on the nose, really beautiful aromas of crushed red, leafy fruits, terrific vibrancy and lift and lots of grip. CORTON CLOS DE LA VIGNE AU SAINT 2005 LOUIS LATOUR A wonderfully balanced and complex wine with a ripe cherry colour and a delicious aroma of red fruits along with more spicy notes that highlight the wine’s natural elegance. It contains finely crafted tannins with a beautiful structure combined with a subtle hint of vanilla oak, resulting in a long and polished finish. CORTON CLOS DES CORTONS FAIVELEY 2006 FAIVELEY This wine has a fine robust red berry fruit nose, good depth and is rather concentrated. It has an obvious structure, well-extracted cherry fruit and evidence of oak in the tannic structure. LE CORTON 2006 BOUCHARD PERE ET FILS This wine has a fresh youthful ruby red, ripe crushed berry fruit nose and is a very good expression of the Pinot Noir fruit. It is both satiny-smooth and well-structured, with a well-balanced acidity and natural tannins which back up the fruit. Source : Singapore Airlines 2010-07-30 Web : http://www.singaporeair.com/
