Finnair raises its glass to 100 years of flying with new wine collection

The airline has launched a collection of special celebratory wines to raise a glass to 100 years of flying. 

Finnair’s new collection of wine include a Castilla la Mancha White 2022, named ‘Destination North’, and a Castilla la Mancha Red 2022, named ‘100,000 islands’, and are designed to please the palates of travellers even 30,000 ft up. The collection was curated with international expert and wine consultant Ken Chase. 

In a nod to its heritage, the wine labels are based on Finnair’s original posters designed by Erik Bruun in the 1950s and 60s. 

Lauri Ahonen, Finnair concept & category manager, said: “Finding the perfect wine for a Finnair flight for our customers to enjoy at 30,000ft is always a challenge, but even more so during our centenary. That’s why we have made the perfect pairing with Ken Chase, who has carefully selected some topflight wines to tantalise the taste buds and we are excited to serve them onboard to ensure a unique experience for Finnair customers.”

The collection of wines will be available to all Economy Class customers from today.
